Philippe Clement has broken his silence following his departure from Rangers.
The 50-year-old was sacked by the Scottish Premiership side following a 2-0 defeat at the hands of St Mirren at Ibrox.
The Belgian left the club 13 points behind Celtic in the league table and was recently in charge when the club was humiliated by Queen's Park in the Scottish Cup.
Now, Clement has released a statement about his time in Glasgow.
On Instagram, he wrote: "Dear Rangers,
It has taken me a few days to fully process and accept the end of my time at this exceptional club.
"I leave with a heavy heart, frustrated and disappointed that I couldn't consistently bring the team to the level we all expected.
"I understand your frustrations, and I share them.

"In those moments, it felt like we were one big family.
