- Clement previously managed Rangers, leaving in February.
- He aims to reverse Norwich's current poor form.
Philippe Clement has officially taken the reins as Norwich City's new head coach, committing to a contract until the summer of 2029. The Belgian manager, who most recently managed Rangers, steps into the role vacated by Liam Manning, who was sacked earlier in the season. Clement's arrival signals a significant shift for the club.
Clement arrives at Carrow Road aiming to turn around the team's current struggles. He acknowledged the club's current position but expressed confidence in his ability, alongside assistant Stephan Van Der Heyden, to motivate the players and staff. The ambition shown by the owners and the potential within the squad convinced him to take on the challenge.
His tenure at Rangers saw mixed results, including a League Cup win but also a relatively short spell. Despite challenges, Clement is known for his methodical approach and clear coaching philosophy. Norwich's sporting director, Ben Knapper, highlighted Clement's experience and leadership as key assets for the club moving forward.
