Philippe Clement teases 'very active' Rangers January transfer window

Philippe Clement has teased a "very active" January transfer window for Rangers.

The Ibrox boss vowed he will not switch off during the winter break and will instead shift focus from training to recruitment this month.

Clement landed his first signing last month with a loan agreed for Fabio Silva to join Rangers until the end of the season - and getting his first minutes in the 3-1 win over Kilmarnock.

And the Belgian manager hinted further business could be done this month but ruled out a major overhaul.

Quizzed on his January transfer plans, Clement said: "How active? I think very active every day by looking at a lot of players together with the people at the club.

"And then we will see how much we can make happen. The things we want, we are not going to sign ten players, don't worry."

On whether he'll switch off during the break - after giving his players time off - Clement said: "I have other things to do, it is not only training we have a January mercato [transfer market] to come so I need to watch players.

"I don't like to switch off. For me, it is not important. My body does not have to do anything anymore and my brain doesn't explode from doing that all the time. I love it and I will do it."
