Glasgow Rangers and Scottish Premiership star Alfredo Morelos is obviously loving life at Ibrox under Steven Gerrard.
Alfredo Morelos clearly has no intention of leaving Rangers this week, if his latest comments are anything to go by.

According to French outlet Foot Mercato, Rennes have also been snopping around the Rangers star.
The Gers’ acquisition of Kyle Lafferty last week has raised further questions over Morelos’s role in Glasgow, but it looks like the 22-year-old, a £1 million signing from HJK Helsinki last summer, is loving life under manager Steven Gerrard and says he wants to continue ‘growing’.
The Colombian striker, who saw his good form rewarded with a first international call-up, told The Record: “Steven Gerrard has been a brilliant manager for me. Everyone knows what a fantastic player he was for Liverpool and England and he won a lot of honours.
“I’m learning a lot from him and he’s been a great teacher for me. I am happy to have him as a manager because he’s helped me a lot and that’s contributed to this call-up.
“Mentally, I am in a very good place. I feel I am playing well, scoring goals and it’s a good time to be called up. I’m settled at Rangers and scoring goals. I hope to keep scoring and growing as a person.”
The Scottish Sun reported earlier today that Morelos was set to be offered a new contract by Rangers, as a result of the increasing interest.
Excitingly, Morelos and Lafferty can be absolutely lethal for the Ibrox club this season. Lafferty already opened his account this season, scoring twice on his full debut last weekend, and the South American, who netted 18 times in all competitions last term, is sure to have a goal-laden campaign if he continues his form.
