Meanwhile, former Celtic attacking midfielder Kris Commons has criticised Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos for his attitude against Heart of Midlothian at Ibrox in the Scottish Premiership this past Sunday afternoon.

Commons wrote in The Daily Mail about Morelos: “He just looks like a man who is really brassed off.

“Whether that’s down to the pressure of him not having scored against Celtic or being dropped, I’m not sure.

“But in a week when everyone is questioning players’ mental states, he’s showing people that he’s not happy.

“My best bet is that stems from him wanting out. He wants to go and earn more money, wherever that may be.”
