Eric Gerets (born May 15, 1954 in Rekem, Belgium) is a former Belgian football defender who is currently the coach of French football club Olympique Marseille.
Gerets played for Rekem, Standard de Liège, AC Milan, MVV Maastricht and PSV Eindhoven, winning among others the 1987-88 European Cup, two Belgian championships and six Dutch championships. Although he was a defender, he was well known for a particular attacking skill: long distance throw-ins. He is with 86 appearances the second most capped player for the Belgium national football team, scoring twice.
As a manager, he worked successively for Lierse SK, Club Brugge, PSV Eindhoven, 1. FC Kaiserslautern, and VfL Wolfsburg before joining Galatasaray SK at the end of the 2004-2005 season. In the season 1996-1997 he won the Belgian championships with Lierse, reprising the feat in the season 1998-1999 with Club Brugge. He won the Dutch championships twice (1999-2000 and 2000-2001) with PSV Eindhoven. In the season 2005-2006, he won the Turkish Premier Super League with Galatasaray SK. Galatasaray SK gained the highest point in its Turkish Premier Super League history at that year. In May of 2007, he left the club. On September 25th, he became Olympique de Marseille's coach.
