Alfredo Morelos of Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers insists he’s ‘very happy’ in Glasgow.
Alfredo Morelos has told Caracol Radio that he is ‘very happy’ at Rangers in the aftermath of speculation about his future.
Rangers managed to keep hold of their prized asset despite interest in January.
The 22-year-old courted interest from a number of clubs, with The Daily Record claiming that French side Nice were lining up an £8 million bid, while Fotospor in Turkey reported that Galatasaray were keen.
Morelos is having a brilliant season at Ibrox and the Colombian hitman took his tally in the Premiership to 15 goals in midweek, making his haul for the 2018-19 campaign over 20 already.
Summer interest in the former HJK Helsinki star is inevitable, but the man himself claims that he is loving life at the Gers for now.
He told Caracol Radio: “I am the top scorer in the league with 15 goals and I am very happy at Rangers.
“It took me a lot longer to adjust to playing in Finland with HJK Helsinki than it did when I arrived in Scotland.
“The snow was a surprise in Finland, but in Glasgow I feel very comfortable. There are great restaurants here and the people are friendly.”
It’ll be music to the ears of Rangers fans, who will be hoping to keep him in the long term, even though it’s unlikely.
But if light Blues boss Steven Gerrard can keep him in Glasgow for next season then it’s a massive boost and, even if they don’t stop Celtic from moving one closer to 10-in-a-row come May, they’ll be better equipped next term if Morelos stays.
