FRANKFURT, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Loss-making German pay TV broadcaster Sky Deutschland has appointed News Corp manager Steven Tomsic as Chief Financial Officer starting Feb. 1 next year.

Maranzana will return to Italy to become deputy CFO at Sky Italia.

Previously, Tomsic has worked at Sky Italia and at Foxtel, the Australian pay-TV platform partially owned by News Corp.

News Corp also owns a 49.9 percent stake in Sky Deutschland.

Sky Deutschland, formerly known as Premiere, is aiming to increase subscriber numbers and finally become profitable.
