Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are set to take on Dundee this evening.

Rangers manager Graeme Murty is seen during the Scottish Cup Quarter final match between Rangers and Hamilton Academical at Ibrox Stadium on March 4, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Graeme Murty has told the Daily Record that Glasgow Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos could be left out of his side’s next match.

Rangers take on Dundee at Dens Park later this evening, looking to bounce back from their defeat to Hamilton.

The Light Blues are under pressure to get the three points, and Murty could ring the changes in the contest.

Morelos is one player whose place in Rangers’ starting line-up is under threat, after a poor run of form.

The Colombian forward made a wonderful start to life at Ibrox, but his goals have dried up in recent times.

Morelos has failed to hit the back of the net in any of his last 10 appearances for the Gers.

And Murty said: “Leave him out? It’s a possibility. The level of support he got when he was scoring goals is the same level of support he’s getting now.

“It’s our job as staff and players to put him in that goalscoring position more often.

“It’s a case of stop thinking about it so much and just trusting in himself a bit more.”

Murty may be taking charge of his final game at Rangers this weekend, as their managerial search goes on.

Rangers have been looking for Pedro Caixinha’s replacement for weeks, but have found finding a new manager more difficult than first anticipated.
