Text is not updating when script is telling it to

So basically I have a Text which should be equal to the same amount of Clicks the player has which is saved in the leaderstats. So when the player joins I want to set the text as the same value. Right now I am sending the ClickNumber which is my text through a remote function to the server and running a playeraddded function so it’ll update when the player joins. My problem is it is not changing the text at all and keeping the text at 0. Script:

	game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
		ClickNum.Text = player.leaderstats.Clicks.Value
	end)

The text only changes when the player has been added from the script. Use the .Changed function for that value.

This makes sense as when you join, the value will be 0 UNTIL the script sets it, so if the client fires the added event first, which it will, it will always be 0. (from my understanding of his script)

EDIT:
You can make it a little more specific by doing:

player.leaderstats.Clicks:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
    ClickNum.Text = player.leaderstats.Clicks.Value
end)
