New-look team
Ciccolini, formerly Gili's assistant, has signed a two-year deal and will lead a new-look coaching team including Michel Padovani, goalkeeping trainer Eric Durant and Nicolas Locussol, who takes charge of fitness.
Villanova role
Louis Multari, chairman since April, has also appointed former AS Saint-Etienne director Christian Villanova as general manager. Last season the club avoided relegation by one point.
