Alfredo Morelos Rangers transfer turn as Fiorentina leapfrog long-time admirers

Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos is being tipped for a switch to Fiorentina as punters continue to pile on a move to Serie A.

The 24-year-old has been linked with a clutch of clubs this summer but remains at Ibrox and is back on form after netting three times in his side's last two games.

And the Colombian international is in line to start tonight against Willem II in his side's crunch Europa League third qualifying tie against the Eredivisie upstarts.

The significant interest from bettors on a move to Fiorentina now has them as second favourites ahead of the likes of Sevilla who have been strongly linked with Morelos in the past.

Oddschecker's Callum Wilson said: "This is not the news Rangers fans will want to be reading with Kemar Roofe’s recent injury, but there’s a new contender in the market for striker Alfredo Morelos. 

“Whilst Lille remains the marginal favourite for El Bufalo, Fiorentina have seen plenty of support from punters this week.”

A move to Ligue 1 has been mooted but Record Sport understands no fresh bid has emerged from Lille over the past week.
