Stéphane Moulin (born 4 August 1967) is a French professional football manager and former player who was most recently the head coach of club Caen. As a player, he played as a midfielder.
Club career
Moulin began his playing career with Angers in 1984 and went on to make 127 league appearances in six seasons with the club. Between 1990 and 1992, he played 51 games and scored nine goals for Châteauroux. After leaving Châteauroux, Moulin spent five years with Châtellerault, during which time he scored eleven goals in 129 league appearances.
Managerial career
Following his retirement in 1997, Moulin was appointed as manager of Châtellerault, a position he held for eight seasons. At the start of the 2005–06 season he was hired by his former club, Angers, to manage the reserve team. He initially shared the position with Gilles Kerhuiel, but continued alone after Kerhuiel left in 2006 to continue his playing career. In the summer of 2011, Moulin was promoted to first-team manager following the departure of Jean-Louis Garcia to Lens.
On 26 March 2021, Moulin announced that he would be leaving Angers at the end of the season, putting an end to his ten-year spell as manager of the club. He had been the longest-continuously-serving manager of any club in Europe's top five leagues.
On 4 June 2021, Moulin was announced as the new manager of Caen, signing a contract until 2024. He resigned in 2023, and was succeeded by Jean-Marc Furlan.
