Ibrox club Glasgow Rangers brought Alfredo Morelos to the Gers in 2017.
Rangers duo Kyle Lafferty and Alfredo Morelos
Ibrox club Rangers signed Morelos from HJK in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by The Scottish Sun to be worth £1.2 million.
The 22-year-old striker was superb for Rangers during the 2017-18 campaign and scored quite regularly for the Gers.
The Colombian has been among the goals for Rangers so far this season, and the youngster was recently awarded a new contract by the Scottish Premiership side.
Riihilahti signed Morelos for HJK from Independiente Medellin in 2016, and the former Crystal Palace defensive midfielder, who played for the Eagles in the Premier League during his spell at the London club from 2001 until 2006, believes that the Colombian has what it takes to turn out in the top flight of English football.
“I can see him going on to play in the English Premier League,” Riihilahti told The Scottish Sun about Morelos. “He has the ability.”
Need for consistency
Morelos is a good striker and is a proven scorer in the Scottish Premiership, but the youngster does need to find consistency in his game.
Moreover, the 22-year-old Colombian also has to turn on the style in the big matches, such as the Old Firm derbies against Celtic.
