Morelos makes desperate move to escape Ibrox

Alfredo Morelos has switched agency in a desperate bid to escape from Ibrox. 

Over the last nine transfer windows the Colombian ace has been subjected to regular moonbeams about how some of Europe’s leading clubs are keeping tabs or poised to put in a bid for the striker. 

Whenever agent Michael Gorman jetted in to Portugal stories about Porto and Benfica inevitably emerged before disappearing just as quickly. 

The trend was set in January 2018 when mystery clubs from China were reported to be putting in offers, since then the phrase Dembele Dollars have dogged the striker who is now well into his fifth season in Scottish football. 

Covering the issue, the Daily Record reports: 

Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos has switched agents as he prepares to go into the final year of his Ibrox contract. 

The Colombian international was previously with Michael Gorman and World in Motion, who brought him to Rangers from HJK Helsinki back in 2017. 

The 25-year-old now appears to have changed to Footfeel and Echo Sports, who boast a big portfolio in Serie A including Inter star Lautaro Martinez, Roma’s Borja Mayoral and Achraf Hakimi, who left Inter for Paris Saint-Germain last summer. 

It’s understood Footfeel are rolling out the red carpet for Morelos, who will give the player the big push over social media. The news will be a concern to Rangers and their fans because Morelos is out of contract in the summer of 2023. 

Connor Goldson, Leon Balogun, Scott Arfield, Allan McGregor and Steve Davis are all out of contract this summer, Morelos, Joe Aribo and Ryan Kent have deals that run until May 2023.
