Steven Gerrard has confirmed to Rangers’ official Twitter account that Alfredo Morelos will be in his side’s squad tomorrow.
Rangers are set to take on St. Johnstone, and there were some fears that Morelos could be set to miss the contest, as speculation over his future mounts.
However, Gerrard believes that the Colombian is fully focused after netting a brace in Rangers’ 3-0 win at the weekend.
“100% Morelos is a Rangers player, you could see that in his performance and he will be in the squad for tomorrow’s game,” Gerrard said.
Morelos’s availability is a big boost for Rangers, as he remains their biggest attacking threat.
The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a move away from Ibrox, with Lille said to be interested by the Daily Mirror, but he looked very sharp at the weekend as he opened his scoring account for the season.
If Morelos does stick around he will face greater competition for his spot in the Light Blues’ starting line-up this term.
Rangers have brought in Kemar Roofe and Cedric Itten already this summer to strengthen their options up-top for the campaign.
