RANGERS Football Club is delighted to announce manager Philippe Clement has agreed terms on a new, extended contract with the club.
The Belgian, who joined Rangers last October, has put pen to paper on a new deal until the summer of 2028.
Initially agreed in talks between Chairman, John Bennett, and Clement at the end of last season, the arrangement has now been formalised on the eve of the new Scottish Premiership campaign.
Since arriving in Glasgow, Clement has guided the squad to League Cup success and to the top of its UEFA Europa League group. Over the summer, together with Director of Football Recruitment, Nils Koppen, his team and the board, Clement has led the rebuilding of the Rangers squad.
Speaking after signing the new deal, Clement said: “I have a really open and transparent relationship with the board - in every meeting that we have had you feel the passion and desire to make the club better and that is the same for me.
“I have fallen in love with the club, with the fans, the stadium and with the city. I see huge potential and now we need to make the club better and stronger in every department, that is our goal, and we are all really aligned about that.”
Chairman John Bennett added: “As I intimated in my recent RangersTV interview, Philippe and I had a far-reaching conversation at the end of May.
"Our shared ambition was clear: the rebuild of the Rangers men’s first team for the long term as well as short term.
“At that meeting we shook hands on this new contract and the board is delighted that the formalities have been concluded.”
