Bundesliga giants, Leeds United, Lille and Spanish side in running for Alfredo Morelos - where next for the Rangers star?
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.

7. Brighton - 8/1
Brighton are preparing for their fourth season in the Premier League. Alireza Jahanbakhsh could be sold this summer which could mean money invested in another forward to support Neal Maupay. A Premier League move would likely be attractive to Morelos. Photo: Alex Livesey
8. Aston Villa - 8/1
