Tuesday 3rd January 2017
Paul Clement has been confirmed as head coach of Swansea City.
The 44-year-old becomes the Swans' third boss of the season after joining from Bayern Munich, where he was assistant to Carlo Ancelotti.
Clement agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal to replace Bob Bradley, who had been in charge since Francesco Guidolin's departure in October.
The former Derby County manager takes over with Swansea bottom of the Premier League.
Clement, who has also been assistant boss at Chelsea and Real Madrid, will be at Selhurst Park for the Swans' game against Crystal Palace on Tuesday, although first team coach Alan Curtis will select the team.
Last season he was in charge of Championship side Derby but was sacked by the club in February of 2016 after a run of seven league games without a win.
Bradley was sacked following a spell of seven defeats in 11 games, and Clement emerged as the frontrunner to replace the American.
Former Manchester United assistant Ryan Giggs, Wales boss Chris Coleman and former Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett had also been linked with the job.
The Swans are four points adrift at the bottom of the table and have lost their last four games, including Saturday's 3-0 home defeat by Bournemouth.
