Clement appointed Swansea manager

Paul Clement signed a two-and-a-half year contract on Tuesday to take over as manager of Swansea City, replacing Bob Bradley at the Premier League's bottom club. Clement, 44, has been assistant manager at Bayern Munich to Carlo Ancelotti, with whom he also worked at Chelsea, Paris St Germain and Real Madrid. In his only managerial job, however, the Englishman lasted less than a year at Championship (second tier) Derby County, who sacked him last February.
