Paul Clement (born 8 January 1972) is an English professional football manager currently managing Premier League club Swansea City. He has regularly assisted Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti; the pair have worked at Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich. Clement has also managed Derby County and has previously held coaching roles at Fulham, Blackburn Rovers, and the Ireland under-21 team.

In his first season as assistant manager, he won the Premier League title with Ancelotti at Chelsea. They also won the UEFA Champions League title and Copa del Rey in their first season at Real Madrid.

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. Clement, however, did not progress beyond non-league football as a player with Banstead Athletic and Corinthian Casuals. 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. 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. Clement also helped coach the Republic of Ireland under-21 national football team, working with Don Givens.
