Philippe Clement looks Todd Cantwell in the eye after leaked RThe relationship between Todd Cantwell and Philippe Clement has already made quite a few Rangers headlines.
Signed by Michael Beale in the January of 2023, Todd Cantwell at his best has been amongst the most technically gifted and talented players we’ve seen at Rangers in recent seasons.
A creative, bold attacking midfielder who is capable of magnificent goals, there’s a reason why ex-Norwich City star Cantwell once came close to joining Bayern Munich.
