Glasgow Rangers manager Graeme Murty suggests that he could play Ibrox strikers Jason Cummings and Alfredo Morelos together.

Rangers manager Graeme Murty is seen during the Ladbrokes Scottish Premiership match between Rangers and Aberdeen at Ibrox Stadium on January 24, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers manager Graeme Murty has suggested to The Glasgow Evening Times that he could deploy Jason Cummings alongside Alfredo Morelos in attack.

Morelos, 21, is one of the best young strikers in the Scottish Premiership and has been in great form for Rangers so far this season.

Cummings recently joined the Gers on loan from Nottingham Forest in the Championship in England in the January transfer window.

The 22-year-old former Hibernian striker scored for Rangers in their 2-1 victory over Ross County away from home in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday afternoon.

Rangers manager Murty has suggested that he could play Cummings and Morelos together as the season progresses.

Murty told The Glasgow Evening Times: ”That would be a sight to see, wouldn’t it, with Alfredo and Jason?

“We have played a diamond previously, you could have Josh in there, Murphy in there, Docherty coming off the bench, the resources I have at my disposal – and that’s before anyone comes back from injury – are great and they are strong and actually they are going to push us to a better place.”

Playing Morelos and Cummings together is a hugely exciting prospect, and Rangers fans should hope that manager Murty does exactly that.

The Colombian has already proved himself in the Scottish top flight, while the Scotland international has made a strong start to life at Rangers.

Playing the two young strikers together could see Rangers become a very fearsome force in attack.
