Steven Gerrard insists Alfredo Morelos' future is "in his hands" as speculation grows surrounding the striker's future.
The Colombian has reportedly accepted personal terms with Lille with the French side set to launch a £17million bid for the forward, claims the Daily Record.
But Gerrard says the Light Blues are far off reaching an agreement with the Ligue 1 outfit for Morelos as he confirmed the Ibrox talisman would be a part of his squad that faces Aberdeen on Saturday.
The Ibrox boss asked the talisman to block out the noise because, as it stands, he's still a Rangers player.
He said: "I think this will work itself out if there is a bid that's big enough, that the board want to accept, we'll make that decision when it comes.
"At the moment we're nowhere near that so Alfredo is still a Rangers player.
"He needs to focus on that and continue contributing goals like he always has done for the last two years.
"At the moment I don't want to add to much noise to it because we've got a game on Saturday. That's the most important thing right now, not ins and outs. The important thing is three points at Aberdeen.
"There's nothing to report on him in terms of his situation. He's focused, training well and available for tomorrow.
"Whether he'll start or not, you'll find out 75 minutes before kick-off.
"At the moment, he needs to block the noise out and focus on the game in front of us."

But Gerrard insists if a big offer does arrive for his star striker, he will have a say on the club's decision.
He added: "It is in my hands and it is in my control.
"But it will be a collective decision when we sit down to analyse any bids that we receive for any player.
"But what I can assure you is that the board are not pushing anyone out the door or putting me under pressure to sell.
"At a club like Rangers I think you've always got to be prepared if someone does leave to be able to replace them.
"One thing for sure is that since I walked in the door, the board have always been on the same page in terms of trying to make this XI and this squad as strong as we can to compete. I don't think that'll change."
