Rangers’ Alfredo Morelos continues to be linked with a move away from the Scottish Premiership, with Bundesliga outfit Eintracht Frankfurt reportedly keen.
Eintracht Frankfurt believe Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos has his heart set on a move to the Premier League, the Daily Record reports, and will now look at alternative options to replace departing talisman Luka Jovic.
Frankfurt lost their 27-goal top scorer on Tuesday when Serbian striker Jovic sealed a £62 million move to Real Madrid, as reported by the Guardian, and finding a successor will be easier said than done.
The Eagles’ esteemed sporting director Fredi Bobic had expressed an interest in Morelos, who actually outscored Jovic last season with 29 goals in all competitions.
Bobic even watched the Colombian in action in a recent draw against Hibernian.
But, after making contact, Frankfurt have discovered that Morelos is only likely to leave Ibrox if a club from the English top flight comes calling. This, as reported by the Daily Record, should also put pay to Marseille or Nice’s hopes of luring the former HJK Helsinki forward to France.
