Gérard Gili (born 7 August 1952) is a Frenchfootball manager and former player.
Gili's highest profile appointment was as manager ofIvory Coast. He was named as the Ivorians' head coach in January 2008, following the resignation ofUlrich Stielike for personal reasons on the eve of the2008 Africa Cup of Nations. Gili was promoted from within, having been a former coach of the country's Under-23 side with whom he qualified for the 2008 Olympics inBeijing.
After leaving the Ivory Coast job, Gili was named manager of the Qatari club sideUmm Salal, but he was sacked in 2010, leaving him unemployed for a year. However, he was reinstated on 15 December 2011 after Umm Salal sacked Moroccan coach Hassan Harmatallah "for unhealthy working environment".[2] The team was at the bottom of the table with no wins so far in mid-season. After the2011–12 season, Gili was replaced by another French coachBertrand Marchand.
During his playing career, he was most notably goalkeeper forOlympique de Marseille.
