Ex-Rangers boss Philippe Clement backed strongly for new job
The axed ex-Ibrox boss is reportedly set for a return to football at Anderlecht, who are set to get rid of their third manager this season after this weekend's final game, following a dismal campaign. Clement was a hero as player and manager for Anderlecht's bitter rivals Club Brugges in his career where he helped them win the Belgian title as a player and a manager. But 63-times Belgian capped star Degryse - who played and won titles for both clubs - urged Anderlecht fans to back Clement.

"In fact, I said earlier this season they should have made an approach to Rangers when he was there. "It shouldn't make any difference he was at Club Brugge if he is the best man for the job. "He is a manager who brings a real winning mentality - he is very passionate, eager to learn and very demanding. He is also bilingual, which plays to his advantage at a club like Anderlecht. "He likes to play attacking football and is a modern coach. He would be a very good choice even if he was at Brugge."
