Breaking News:Clement: Returning to ‘special’ Ibrox ‘can be a big help’ to Rangers
Philippe Clement has a “special feeling” about getting back to Ibrox and says it feels like returning home after ten years away.
Rangers will play at their home stadium for the first time this season when they host Dundee in the League Cup this weekend.
They started the campaign at Hampden, with mixed results, due to construction work at Ibrox and the manager feels getting back will be a “big help” to the club going forward.
Clement says he has even felt the excitement from the players this week in training and he is looking forward to experiencing the Ibrox atmosphere again.
Speaking to the media on Friday he said: “It is a plus, you can feel it in the building, I was there yesterday and you get a special feeling coming back there.
“I know that is the same with all the players, I have felt that already this week in training that they were giving something extra, and I think that will be the case with the fans also.
“It is like coming home after a really long time, it felt like we have been away for ten years or something and we are really happy to be coming back.
“The enthusiasm of the fans can always help, and in that way playing at Hampden was more difficult, and we know why, so it always helps.
“And it is not just that way here, it is the same with a lot of clubs all over the world to play in front of your own fans.
“And especially at Ibrox, with so many passionate fans, it can be a big help to us to play there and have that support.”
