The Belgian will be in the Ibrox dugout for the first time when the Hibees come to Govan.
Philippe Clement has a huge task ahead of him to turn Rangers' fortunes around - but it's one the Belgian is relishing.
What he likes to do First, we revisit Clement’s debut for Monaco back in January 2022. He took on seventh-placed Nantes away from home in his first game, with the Monegasque side sat sixth in the table following the sacking of Niko Kovac. Having lost six games from 19 until that point, scoring 30 in the league and conceding 23, Clement went for a more conservative side that was less likely to concede.
It was a similar tale in his Club Brugge debut, albeit against what was perceived as weaker opposition in Waasland-Beveren. Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Ethan Horvath, Ivorian centre-back Simon Deli and Matej Mitrovic formed the defence, whilst the experienced duo of Mats Rits and Ruud Vormer formed a solid midfield packed with experience.
Ibrox awaits He’ll begin his Rangers career in the home dugout, and despite coming up against a Hibs side that have been more sturdy than ever under new boss Nick Montgomery in recent weeks, he’ll likely start his side to be on the front foot from the start. And he was already moving proverbial chess pieces on the board in his behind the scenes video he shot himself with width appearing a priority.
