Philippe Clement was sacked by club on Sunday evening‘We appreciate Barry and his team stepping into the role’
Rangers have placed their former captain Barry Ferguson in charge of first-team affairs until the end of the season following Philippe Clement’s sacking.
Saturday’s 2-0 home defeat by St Mirren proved to be the final straw for Clement, with the club announcing the Belgian’s departure on Sunday night after 16 months at the helm. The surprise loss left second-placed Rangers 13 points behind Old Firm rivals Celtic in the Premiership and came after a damaging Scottish Cup reverse to minnows Queen’s Park on 9 February.
