Rangers ace Alfredo Morelos' wife posts adorable snap of daughter in club's strip

Rangers star Alfredo Morelos' wife has shared an adorable photo of their five-month-old daughter wearing the club's strip.

Yesenia, who welcomed her bundle of joy at home in Colombia in May, took to Instagram to post the heartwarming snap.

The smiling wee tot looked adorable in the pic as she posed decked out in the personalised Rangers strip with 'Leonela' across the back.

The caption read: "apoyando a papa" which translates as "supporting dad".

Ibrox ace Alfredo, 24, and Yesenia have never publicly announced the name of their first child.

However, just after her birth the striker shared a series of snaps of the gifts they'd received, including a congratulations balloon which read: 'Welcome baby Leonela.'

The meaning of Leonela is "lion".

It comes after the doting parents celebrated five months since their baby daughter was born last week.

The couple pulled out all the stops to mark the big occasion at home after welcoming their beloved baby.

Stunning Yesenia shared some adorable snaps of the pair with their wee one alongside a five balloon and a watermelon cake.

Yesenia paid tribute to their "beautiful" baby in an Instagram post, saying: "Five months ago you came into our life, my beautiful baby.

"With you we have learned many things, sing, bathe, change but above all I have learned from patience.

"It is a gift I did not know was in me, you were able to make it blossom.

"We love you!"

Last month, we reported the footballer had been given a heroes' welcome home by his family after being away for ten days with the Colombian national side.

Morelos was praised by Colombia coach Carlos Queiroz  as one of the three that rescued a point in their World Cup Qualifier against Chile in Santiago.

He was treated to balloons in the colour of the  Colombian flag by Yesenia when he arrived back in Glasgow, as well as banners and a cake.

Last month, the new dad showed his love for his wife and daughter by showering them in flowers and balloons.

The married couple put on a romantic display as they posed for snaps with their baby daughter.

Yesenia posted: "Celebrating the love @alfredomorelos30 we love you thank you for every day showing us your love."

The pair posed holding their baby daughter surrounded by heart shaped balloons and red roses as the proud dad wore a red top to match his four-month-old daughter's outfit.

In another post, Alfredo and Yesenia shared a kiss which was caught on camera.
