Reigning Serie A champions, Napoli, have announced the appointment of Rudi Garcia as their new head coach.
The 59-year-old Frenchman takes over from Luciano Spalletti, who left the club to take a sabbatical after leading Napoli to their first Scudetto in 33 years in May.
Garcia has prior experience managing in Serie A, having previously coached Roma. He achieved success during his time at Lille, winning a French league and cup double in the 2010-11 season. After departing Lille, he went on to manage Marseille and Lyon before his most recent role at Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia, which concluded in April.

“I have the pleasure of announcing that, after having met and attended him during the last 10 days, Mr Rudi Garcia will be the new coach of Napoli,” said owner Aurelio De Laurentiis.
