The international break will soon be over, and players will return to their Scottish Premiership teams ahead of a hectic weekend in the local divisions. Hibs will travel to Ibrox to face a new-look Rangers, who have officially revealed their new manager.

Meanwhile, Hibs’ rivals Hearts will host Rangers’ greatest rivals Celtic on Sunday afternoon, as key players such as Martin Boyle, Kye Rowles, and Kenneth Vargas return from international service with their respective countries.

Here is the latest news from Hibs and Hearts’ domestic opponents ahead of a busy weekend of Scottish Premiership play.

Same result under a new boss.

Some Rangers directors questioned Philippe Clement’s selection, and he faces a difficult task at a club without a long-term plan.

After being awarded another three-and-a-half year contract from Glasgow, a Scottish Sun journalist believes Clement has fallen into the same trap as his Ibrox predecessors.

Gio Van Bronckhorst agreed to a three-and-a-half-year contract that lasted one year and three days.

Michael Beale was then sentenced to three and a half years in prison, however he only served 308 days. Pedro Caixinha and Mark Warburton were the previous recipients of three years.

The first lasted 248 days, while the second lasted 20 months. Billie Leckie contends that the Rangers’ recruitment process is defective, and she is unsure what Clement can do to change his fate.

Two former Ibrox players want to return.

As the Thomas Buffel link is addressed, Philippe Clement Rangers backroom staff ‘may’ include two ex-Ibrox stars.

According to rumors, new Rangers manager Philippe Clement may retain Steven Davis and Alex Rae as members of his Ibrox backroom staff.

Davis and Rae, who were drafted in as temporary manager and assistant manager following Michael Beale’s departure, could be given permanent jobs as Clement is said to be looking for somebody with a ‘deep understanding’ of Rangers.

Meanwhile, speculations tying Thomas Buffel, a former Rangers player and Clement’s countryman, to the new Rangers coaching staff have been debunked.

Former Dons legend predicts Celtic hero to be the next big midfield phenomenon (Celtics are here).

Former Aberdeen goalkeeper turned Danish TV football analyst Peter Kjaer expressed respect for O’Riley’s exploits at Celtic, emphasizing his surprise at the midfielder’s absence from Denmark’s national squad.

Given O’Riley’s current trajectory and participation in the Champions League, Kjaer believes it is just a matter of time before he receives a senior call-up. “Of course, it’s tough for O’Riley to break in when you look at the names already there,” Kjaer said of the 22-year-old.

“At Brentford, you have Eriksen, Hjobjerg, Jensen and Norgaard, and Lindstrom at Napoli.” But because he’s young and plays for a good team, he’ll do it one day. He’s creating a name for himself at Celtic. It’s simply a matter of time. He’ll be in there in a few games or the next friendly, I believe. I’ve seen O’Riley play, and he’s a fantastic player. I know the national coach believes he’s fantastic.”
