Rangers star Alfredo Morelos 'subject of £7m transfer bid' from Sevilla

Alfredo Morelos is the subject of a £7million offer from La Liga outfit Sevilla, according to a report.

The Rangers striker is entering the final 12 months of his current deal and the Ibrox side could look to cash in on their main striker if he decides against extending his stay in Glasgow. He is currently putting himself through the paces as he continues his return from the thigh injury that ruled him out of the second half of last season.

His time on the sidelines meant he missed the title run-in with Celtic, the Scottish Cup Final triumph over Hearts and of course they run to the Europa League Final. Ironically, that meant he didn't play in the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium - the home of Sevilla - as Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men lost in a heartbreaking penalty shootout to Frankfurt. Morelos has never hidden his desire to play in a top league in his career and Spanish outlet El Chiringuito TV claim a bid has been launched for the striker.

The report states that Sevilla - who will play Champions League football next season after finishing fourth in the La Liga standings - have put an offer on the table worth €8m and that Morelos 'likes' the option of going to Spain.

The Colombian hitman has been a key player for Rangers since his arrival at the club and has established himself as a firm fans' favourite.

He recaptured his best form under the Dutchman after he took over the top job from Steven Gerrard and he won't want to lose his main striker.

Morelos scored 19 goals in 42 appearances last season and has scored 113 in his time with the club in just 224 games.

One player who could arrive at Rangers this summer is striker Antonio Colak.

There is interest from Ibrox in the PAOK striker with reports in Greece claiming an opening offer had been knocked back.

A second approach for the hitman is not imminent but its understood that Van Bronckhorst remains interested in a move.
