Rangers manager Philippe Clement's job is on the line after the club suffered a humiliating defeat to Queen's Park in the Scottish Cup. This unexpected loss marks a historic low for Rangers and leaves Clement facing the prospect of a trophyless season unless they can win the Europa League.
Rangers manager Philippe Clement's position is facing serious scrutiny after the club suffered a humiliating home defeat to Queen's Park in the Scottish Cup. The loss, which saw Queen's Park advance to the next round thanks to a 97th-minute penalty save, has left Rangers on the brink of a trophyless season unless they can secure victory in the Europa League.
This defeat marks the first time in Rangers' 153-year history that they have lost a home tie in the Scottish Cup to a team from a lower division, adding further weight to the pressure mounting on Clement. Following the match, Clement admitted that the club had sought more signings during the January transfer window, but ultimately fell short of achieving all their objectives. He stated that the club 'wanted more' additions to their squad and 'didn't achieve all the goals that we wanted.' This admission fuels speculation about the effectiveness of the club's transfer strategy and the manager's ability to build a team capable of competing at the highest level.Meanwhile, Rangers are set to open new contract negotiations with 26-year-old midfielder Ianis Hagi, whose current deal expires in the summer. The club's focus on securing the long-term future of key players like Hagi highlights their desire to rebuild and regain their dominance in Scottish football. However, the recent string of disappointing results casts a shadow over their prospects for a swift return to success. Other developments, such as the injury setback suffered by £47.5 million Portugal midfielder Joao Palhinha, further complicate their immediate future
