Paul Clement (born 8 January 1972) is an English football coach. He is currently working at Spanish Primera Liga club Real Madrid, assisting head coach Carlo Ancelotti.

He has also previously held coaching roles at Fulham, Blackburn Rovers and the Republic of Ireland under-21 national football team.

Career

Clement is the son of former Queen's Park Rangers and England player Dave Clement and the brother of former West Bromwich Albion player Neil Clement.[1] Clement, however, did not progress beyond non-league football as a player.[1] He concentrated on coaching from the age of 23, as he worked in the Chelsea centre of excellence while holding down a job as a PE teacher.[1] Clement obtained a UEFA 'A' coaching licence in 1999 and became a full-time football coach in 2000, when Fulham appointed Clement to a role in their academy.[1] Clement also did some coaching for the Republic of Ireland under-21 national football team, working with Don Givens.[1]

Clement returned to Chelsea in 2007, initially working with their under-16 team.[1] He progressed through the coaching ranks there and began working with the Chelsea first team when Guus Hiddink was appointed manager in 2009.[1] Clement was retained as a first team coach by Carlo Ancelotti during his two seasons in charge of Chelsea.[1] He then briefly worked as a coach at Blackburn Rovers, assisting Steve Kean.[1] He was then hired by Paris Saint-Germain, after Ancelotti had been appointed their head coach.[2]

Clement was appointed assistant coach at Real Madrid after Ancelotti became their head coach in June 2013.[3]
