"Former Rangers boss Philippe Clement has been appointed as Liam Manning's successor at Championship side Norwich City. Clement, who was sacked in February by Rangers after finding themselves 13 points adrift of rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership, has signed a three-and-a-half-year contract. The 51-year-old comes in to replace Manning at Carrow Road after the former Bristol City boss won just two of his 15 Championship matches at the helm (D3 L10)."
"Indeed, since the start of September, Norwich are the only side in the Championship without a victory (D3 L8) and are winless in 11 games. The Canaries have not had a longer winless league run since going 13 without a win in the Premier League between August and November 2004. Norwich are second-bottom in the second tier with nine points and are four adrift of safety, with Clement's first game in charge away to Birmingham City this Saturday."

Norwich have not won since the start of September (D3 L8), are winless in 11 games and sit second-bottom with nine points, four adrift of safety. Clement said meeting the owners and hearing their ambitions convinced him to take the job. His first game in charge is away to Birmingham City this Saturday. He won 55 of 86 games at Rangers, a 64% win rate.
