Belgian departs after 16 months in charge at IbroxTeam are 13 points behind Celtic and out of Scottish Cup
Philippe Clement has been sacked as the Rangers manager after 16 months in charge following damaging back-to-back home defeats. The Belgian has been under extreme pressure since the humiliating Scottish Cup exit at the hands of Scottish Championship side Queen’s Park a fortnight ago, and a first Ibrox loss to St Mirren since 1991 on Saturday proved to be the final straw for the board.
Clement departs Rangers – 13 points adrift of city rivals Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership – at a time when the club are in talks about a multi-million-pound investment by a United States-led consortium which includes Paraag Marathe, president of 49ers Enterprises and chairman of Leeds United.
