Julien Sablé (born 11 September 1980) is a French professionalfootball manager. In his playing days as amidfielder, he represented France at youth international level.
Sablé began his career atSaint-Étienne, where he made his first team debut in the 1997–98 season. He became an integral member of the club the following season, when they earned promotion toLigue 1. Sablé later earned thecaptain's armband at Saint-Étienne. In 2007, he signed a contract withLens. In January 2009, he joinedNice, where he would eventually become club captain.[3][4] He joinedBastia in October 2012,[5] before retiring at the end of thefollowing season,[6] the same day asMickaël Landreau.[citation needed]
In December 2017, Sablé, who had been working as Saint-Étienne's under-19 coach, stepped in as the club's interim head coach following the departure ofÓscar García. He managed six games, with a record of two draws and four losses, before being replaced byJean-Louis Gasset.[citation needed] Sablé took up the post of assistant manager at the club after Gasset's arrival, and remained as an assistant throughout the spells of Gasset,Ghislain Printant, andClaude Puel as manager.[7] In December 2021, Sablé once again became Saint-Étienne's interim manager, this time following the dismissal of Puel.[8] AfterPascal Dupraz was appointed, Sablé returned to his post of assistant. He left Saint-Étienne at the end of the2022–23 season, with the club suffering relegation toLigue 2.[9]
On 12 December 2022, Sablé became the manager ofChampionnat National 3 side Nice B.[10] AfterLucien Favre was sacked, he was promoted to assistant manager for Nice's first team, under the direction ofDidier Digard, formerly the assistant coach. Since Digard initially did not have hisUEFA Pro License, UEFA rules prevented him from carrying out the usual pre-match press conference duties held by the manager in UEFA competitions. Sablé, as assistant, completed the press conference instead of Digard ahead of aUEFA Europa Conference League match againstSheriff Tiraspol, and was listed as the manager on the match sheet to oblige by the rules.[11]
