Dujon Sterling becomes Rangers skeleton key for Philippe Clement
When Dujon Sterling joined Rangers in the summer, it appeared to be a promising signing, offering depth at right-back and potentially addressing the team’s left-back issues. Despite his prior connection with Michael Beale from their time at Chelsea’s academy, Sterling struggled to make an impact under the previous manager, featuring sparingly in substitute roles.
However, under Philippe Clement’s management, Sterling has flourished, particularly during critical moments. He showcased his versatility and ability to respond to challenges, notably delivering a standout performance in the Viaplay Cup final amid a midfield selection crisis, helping secure the first of potentially four trophies for Rangers.
With injuries affecting attacking options, Sterling has adapted to an advanced role on the right flank, demonstrating his value with his first goal for the club. His contribution could prove pivotal to Rangers’ ambitions, especially in the Europa League, where reaching the quarter-finals is a significant goal for the team.
