Biography
After graduating from the Centre de formation des journalistes de Paris in 1988, Gilles started his journalism career at "Le Parisien". On 5 May 1992, Gilles went to the Armand Cesari Stadium in the city of Furiani, Corsica, and was one of the wounded. In September 2009, when he was editor at "Le Parisien", he was dismissed by General Director Jean Hornain along with the chief editor Dominique de Montvalon and the editor Phulippe Duley. This happened due to decreasing sales of 4%.[1]
In November 2009, he became deputy sales director of "France-Soir", and then sports department director from August 2011 to January 2012.
As a chronicler of the show we remade the game, on RTL, I-TV, and RFI, and author of five books on football, he was a reporter for "L'Équipe".
He joined the show "Touche pas à mon poste!" as a columnist during 2013–2014, 2014-2015, and 2015–2016 seasons,[2] and teamed up with Cyril Hanouna in broadcasting Feet in the flat on the radio station Europe 1. He appears regularly on CNews.
