Rangers Exclusive: Clement to Belgium update after £840,000 sack news.

Ibrox News believes that Rangers manager Philippe Clement is not on the shortlist to become Belgium manager. The Gers manager has come under criticism at Ibrox after several disappointing performances, although he has been linked with a move to national management. This comes after the Red Devils fired Domenico Tedesco on Friday (17 January), and the Light Blues’ head coach was connected with the vacant position [The Scottish Sun]. The 50-year-old’s move is now improbable, according to Ibrox News, since the Belgian FA has “big financial issues”.

Rangers manager Philippe Clement not on Belgium’s shortlist

A source close to the Belgium national team told Ibrox News that Tedesco’s dismissal would cost £840k (€1 million). This has left the Royal Belgian Football Association with financial concerns, which means that only “free agent” managers will be considered. With Clement still in charge at Ibrox, the former Monaco manager is not among the 39-year-old’s probable successors.
