Philippe Clément kills the (false) rumor which sent him to Anderlecht: “For me, everything is clear”

Which does not prevent Scottish journalists from asking him a question about the situation at the Brussels club. “There are rumors from Belgium that you are in the running for Anderlecht. Do you want to say something about this?”asked one of them at a press conference before the match against Malmö.

And the least we can say is that Philippe Clément did not procrastinate. “If you ask me the question, I certainly want to say something about it,” he said, a bit surprised by the question. “For me it is clear: I have made a long-term commitment to join Rangers. Whichever club knocks on the door, I won’t leave.”

This has the merit of being unequivocal. Last year, Rangers finished second in the league, eight points behind Celtic. This year, the club coached by the former Monaco coach is already five points behind its historic rival. But Clément wants to continue fighting. “I want this team to be successful in the future. We all know this will take time and some transfer periods. And above all: above all, we must continue to work.”

Even without a crest, Anderlecht wants to relive its past

After a mixed episode in Monaco, the Bruges resident admits to having fallen in love with his current club. “I want to continue the adventure here. I love the city, the fans and the great atmosphere at Ibrox. I’m here to stay, that’s clear.”
