Former Rangers midfielder and Ibrox scout Neil Murray said it’s “an absolute guarantee” that Alfredo Morelos won’t extend his stay in Govan.
The clock is ticking on the Colombian’s contract at the Scottish Premiership side with his six-year spell at the light blues looking like it’s coming to an end after Michael Beale recently said he had to “do more” for him. The 26-year-old has been linked with Sevilla and Galatasaray recently and Murray, a treble winner in 1992/93 before returning to the club as scout, is convinced he will be for the off in the summer.
He told PLZ : "I think that it's an absolute guarantee that he won't sign again for Rangers. He will be finding a new club somewhere.” But the 50-year-old, who also played for Dundee United, is convinced that Morelos will still earn more lucrative wages despite going off the boil at Rangers.
He said: "He's still a young player and he'll find wages at clubs abroad that Rangers can't pay. That's the sad reality and it's a new chapter - I imagine.”
Asked if fans would rate his time at Rangers, he said: “I think the vast majority of fans would say yes. The goals he's scored and he's the highest scorer in European competition for Rangers.”
