Philippe Clement is set to take charge of Rangers for the first time today as the Ibrox outfit welcome Hibs to Govan.

The 49-year-old became the 19th permanent manager of Gers following the departure of Michael Beale at the start of the month.

After playing at Genk and Club Brugge, Clement won the Belgian Pro League as a manager with both teams but he inherits a Light Blues side who are currently seven points behind Premiership leaders and defending champions Celtic.

For his first match in charge of Rangers, Clement will have Danilo, Kemar Roofe, Ryan Jack and Todd Cantwell back in his squad although all players might not be able to play 90 minutes.

Scott Wright returns from suspension but Ecuador midfielder Jose Cifuentes returned from international duty with a knock and Tom Lawrence (calf) and Rabbi Matondo (knee) remain out.

In terms of Hibernian, Jojo Wollacott is back in contention after recovering from the thigh injury he suffered on his debut, while his fellow goalkeeper David Marshall is also fit despite being forced off by injury late on against Hearts.

Jake Doyle-Hayes (ankle), Harry McKirdy (heart) and Chris Cadden (Achilles) remain out.

Speaking ahead of the match, new Rangers boss Clement explained: “I want to win everything. That’s the mentality when I step into a building, I want to give this mentality also towards the dressing room and create more and more winners in this dressing room.

“So we’re going to work really hard to get silverware as fast as possible and to make this story step by step, bigger and bigger.

“How fast it comes? You never know I don’t have this crystal ball.

“Also I’m not a magician that suddenly can totally change players. But I know if we can work a long time with players that we can make them better.”
