Manager Philippe Clement has reaffirmed his long-term commitment to Rangers, saying no team will tempt him away from Govan.

Former Belgium international Nordin Jbari suggested managerless Anderlecht should attempt to appoint the Ibrox boss, who signed a new contract just last month.

When posed the question at his pre-Malmo media conference, Clement replied: “Whatever team comes, I’m not going to go away.”

Following his appointment last October, the Belgian led Rangers to League Cup success and mounted a Premiership title challenge.

The season unravelled at the finale, though, and Clement has since had to oversee a huge turnover of players.

Despite a turbulent summer, the Ibrox boss is adamant he wants to remain at the club and make his long-term vision a success.

Speaking prior to Rangers’ Europa League opener in Sweden, Clement added: “Really clear, I want this project with the club and to make it really successful for the future.

“We need time for that, a few transfer windows for that, that’s what I want to do. I love the city, I love the club, I love the dynamic at Ibrox with the fans.

“So I’m here to stay, very clear.”
