Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos is excited for upcoming clash with Celtic.
Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos says he cannot wait to face Celtic this coming weekend.
The Colombian is in outstanding form, scoring six goals in his last six games.
The 21-year-old also admitted he has received some big promises from some Rangers fans who have urged him to do the business against Celtic.
Morelos said: ““This weekend, we play Celtic for the first time this season and I cannot wait for that. It’s one of the biggest and most famous Classics in the world.
“Both us and the supporters are looking forward to the game. Our fans won’t accept us losing to Celtic and neither do we.
“We have to beat them.”
He added: “I want to make history with Rangers, I want to win the title this year and I want to make sure the Rangers fans are happy.
“When I meet them, they always ask me to score against Celtic. They tell me if I score the winner against them, they will get my name tattooed onto their skin!”
Rangers failed to beat Celtic in six attempts last season, and lost two of the fixtures 5-1.
Pedro Caixinha was in charge for one of these and knows this is the crucial test to see how the team measure up.
Morelos has scored eight goals in all competitions for Rangers and could be their key to finally getting one over on their rivals.
Rangers go into the game five points behind Celtic already and a defeat will be a big blow to their title chances already.
Morelos seems suitably motivated already to do everything in his power to get his side a result.
