Blackburn Rovers' owners have given Steve Kean the green light to appoint Paul Clement as his new assistant manager.
The under-fire boss has been looking for a new coach after John Jensen left the club in September.
Kean and Clement know each other from a coaching spell at Fulham.
Rovers, who are currently 19th in the Premier League table, travel to QPR on Saturday.
