Gérald Edmond Louis Baticle (born 10 September 1969) is a French professional football manager and former player who played as a striker. He was most recently the manager of Angers in Ligue 1.
Playing career
Born in
the final of the French cup where the AJA defeated Montpellier 3–0 to win its first national title. In the 1994–95 season, he had to face the concurrence of an emerging Lilian Laslandes
for the sole striker post in Guy Roux's emblematic 4-3-3.
Baticle then chose to move to an ambitious
1997 League cup
triumph as well as the good UEFA Cup run the following season.
He was then back for a season and a half at Auxerre as a transition striker between world champion Stéphane Guivarc'h and the young Djibril Cissé. In December 1999, he was transferred to Metz where he enjoyed decent success as a striker for three years in a struggling team. When Metz was relegated, Baticle moved to Troyes for a season before ending his career in 2003–04 with Ligue 2 side Le Havre.
Coaching career
Baticle was a successful youth coach for three seasons with Auxerre's under 18 team, reaching the final of the
Stade Brestois and it was rumoured that general manager Corentin Martins was eager to bring his former Auxerre teammate at Brest for the managing job but the move was at first opposed by Auxerre's president Jean-Claude Hamel.[3] Ultimately, a compromise was found and Baticle joined Brest,[4] winning his first game 4–0 against Bastia on 7 November 2008. He was fired in May 2009 and replaced by Alex Dupont.[5]
On 22 December 2022, Baticle was sacked by Angers.[6]
