Bundesliga giants, Leeds United, Lille and Spanish side in running for Alfredo Morelos - where next for the Rangers star?
The Colombian’s days at Rangers appear to be nearing the end
Rangers boss Steven Gerrard refrained from going do the coy route when quizzed about Alfredo Morelos after the Bayer Leverkusen match on Thursday evening. The Colombian was far from his best during the 1-0 defeat in the Europa League tie in Germany.
Gerrard admitted that transfer speculation and interest from French side Lille had had an impact. He said: “I don’t know [if Morelos will still be here next week] because I can’t control what goes on outside. Everyone knows he’s had his head turned, for sure. There’s no denying that.”
Lille is the likely destination but there could be interest from elsewhere. See who the bookies think are keen and what chances of them landing the striker.
1. West Brom - 20/1
The Baggies have been linked with Morelos in the past. Now they are back in the Premier League Slaven Bilic will be looking to strengthen his forward options with his top scorers in the Championship this past season only hitting 10.

2. Leeds United - 16/1
Finally back in the Premier League, Marcelo Bielsa's side have been linked to a host of players. With just one player in the top 30 scorers in the Championship more attacking arsenal will be required.
