Rangers Football Club has appointed Philippe Clement as their new manager on a contract until 2027. The 49-year-old will take charge of the team starting Monday and will lead them in their upcoming match against Hibernian on Saturday. Clement replaces Michael Beale, who was dismissed two weeks ago following three league defeats in seven games during his tenure. Prior to joining Rangers, Clement achieved success in Belgium by winning three consecutive Pro League titles with Genk and Club Brugge, and he most recently had a brief spell at Monaco. Clement expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to manage Rangers, and he looks forward to achieving success in the remaining competitions this season and beyond. Belgian Football Consultant Scott Coyne praised Clement’s track record as a winner and his ability to turn clubs around quickly. Coyne also mentioned that Clement prefers a possession-based style of play with a high line and looks to exploit spaces behind the opposition. Clement is known for getting the best out of players and maintaining clear expectations. The decision to appoint Clement came after an extensive search process that involved interviews and vetting of high-caliber candidates. Rangers hope that Clement can bring the team back to domestic success following a slow start to the season. They currently trail leaders Celtic by seven points in the Scottish Premiership and were eliminated from the Champions League. Clement’s first challenge will be the match against Hibernian, followed by Europa League fixtures against Sparta Prague and league matches against Hearts and Dundee. Rangers also have a League Cup semi-final against Hearts, where a victory would secure a spot in the Viaplay Cup final. Rangers fans can follow the team’s progress through live blogs on the Sky Sports website and app, where they can also find the latest news, fixtures, results, goals, and videos related to the team.
