A statement from chairman Gordon Thomson on the Clyde website read: “I’m delighted to be welcoming Jim back to the club as manager.
“His experience, networks within the game, and enthusiasm for the challenge ahead convinced us that he was the right man for the role.”
Clyde find themselves struggling at the wrong end of League One, having picked up just seven points from 14 games this season.
They are on a horrendous run of league form, having lost their last 11 games and scoring seven goals.
They were beaten 1-0 by Airdrieonians at the weekend with Duffy’s first game in charge this coming Saturday a test against league leaders Dunfermline, led by another ex-Dark Blues captain James McPake.
Duffy had four spells in total at Dundee as a player, manager and player-manager.
