Giovanni van Bronckhorst has spoken to the media for the first time since the Scottish Cup Final in May.Â
After 10 days of pre-season training the Dutchman has given the most gentle of interviews to Sky Sports in which the big issues are neatly side-stepped.Â
First up was the good news that PAOK flop Antonio Colak was on his way followed by positive spin on Joe Aribo’s move to Charlton. The transfer fee wasn’t mentioned but apparently it is the ambition of the club to produce squad fillers for mid-table EPL clubs.Â

Strangely there was no mention of Alfredo Morelos. Out of action since March 20 the Colombian ace hasn’t been seen on the training pitch at Murray Park or at the club’s Portuguese training base since returning from a holiday in Colombia.Â
Saturday’s friendly against Sunderland should provide a clue to the fitness of Morelos, if he fails to make the bench three weeks before the first SPFL match of the season it is highly unlikely that he’ll be firing on all cylinders for the Champions League qualifier on August 2 or 3.Â
Like Aribo and Ryan Kent, Morelos is out of contract in May 2023.Â
I tough a “£2m Toni” was somethin you got at the hairdressers!
Press do any story on him , in the gym , his hair , training shoes etc , not lately though
No wonder , you seen the size of him
Ain’t getting much for fat hole
Talk-sport / Sky must pay the £20k a time for Deadco Pressers.
If its true Morelos is on the treadmill trying yo get stones off instead pounds there is know way any team will buy ar loan an indisplined footballer, he will be at ibrox next season tripping over his bottom lip
