Brendan Rodgers reacts to Clement sacking and gives Bernardo update | OneFootball

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has provided his views on Rangers' decision to sack Philippe Clement.

Rangers parted ways with Clement on Sunday following their shock 2-0 defeat against St Mirren.

“We all know the conditions up here. You have to be winning.

“Philippe has shown previous to coming in to Rangers that he’s a very good manager.” Rodgers said.

The Scottish Premiership action continues in mid-week and Celtic take on third-placed Aberdeen on Tuesday.

Rodgers also provided an injury update on Paulo Bernardo, who picked up an ankle injury against Raith Rovers earlier in February.

"There's still another three or four weeks left. Yes, it's still a wee bit of time away. We've given him a little bit of time off. He's obviously back in now. So, yes, he's still a bit of time away."

Celtic are top of the Scottish Premiership with a 13-point lead over rivals Rangers.
