Glasgow Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos has enjoyed a wonderful start to life at Ibrox.

Josh Windass has suggested that he can see little reason why Rangers teammate Alfredo Morelos cannot go on and reach the 30-goal mark this season, The Scottish Sun reports.

Morelos arrived at Ibrox in the summer, and like many of Pedro Caixinha’s acquisitions, he was certainly not a household name amongst the Gers supporters before signing.

But the 21-year-old has made a brilliant start to life with Rangers, scoring seven goals in his last five games including braces against Dunfermline, Ross County and Dundee.

And Windass suggested that bringing up a landmark number of goals may not be out of reach for the Colombian based on how he has adapted to life with the Light Blues.

“He’s class. The ball always seems to fall to him at the right time and he always seems to put it away,” he said, as reported by The Scottish Sun.

“That’s the sign of a quality striker. I hope he can carry it on for himself and the club.

“Can he score 30? He’s well on his way already this season.”

While he is still some way off reaching that 30-goal mark, there is no question that the fact that he has started so well certainly suggests that he will be in contention to achieve that tally – provided that he manages to stay fit.

And Caixinha will be hoping that those goals help the Gers as they look to compete for silverware this season.
