Picture of Alfredo Morelos' dad sends Rangers fans into meltdown as he's hailed man with 'best tadpoles in world'

Alfredo Morelos' father has revealed himself on social media, sending Rangers FC fans into hysteria.

Alfredo Morelos Snr. was 'presented' to the Gers star's legion of loyal fans this week.

The proud father posed up for a selfie with Karina Ruiz Beleno; the social media manager of Morelos' charity foundation.

Karina shared the sweet photo on Twitter on Tuesday.

"Father of our dear, Alfie."

"#Rangers #RangersFC #RangersFamily."

In just a couple of days the tweet amassed thousands of likes and shares.

Rangers fans commented on the post in their droves, full of praise for the doting dad and of course, his striker son.

One wrote: "Thank you, for producing the greatest thing out of Columbia."

Another added: "His son is my hero.

"Please pass this on."

A third posted: "We must protect this man at all costs.

"He produces elite offspring."

Others noticed a resemblance between daddy Morelos and his 24-year-old son.

One commented: "Alfie looks like his dad.

"His dad helped produce a legend of a man on and off the football pitch.

"Our #BuffaloSoldier."

Another added: "They won't be on Jeremy Kyle for a DNA test.

"He is his double."

The Ibrox star was brought up by Alfredo Snr and his mother, known as Marta Ives Albiles in the Botaven area of Cerete in Colombia.

Morelos, who scored in Rangers' recent 1-0 win over Livingston, shares his own parenting journey online.

Last month we told how the doting dad and his wife, Yesenia, launched an Instagram page for their own daughter.

Little Leonela Morelos only came into the world last summer.

But the adorable tot has already amassed over 1,000 followers on her Instagram page where her mum and dad post cute photos of her day-to-day life in Glasgow.
