Rangers confirm Alfredo Morelos has had surgery and will be sidelined for several months
The Ibrox club issued a statement on Tuesday evening to confirm that the 25-year-old Colombian went under the knife to rectify his muscle issue.
Morelos was sent home from international duty with Colombia last week after he was diagnosed by their medical team as having a problem with his thigh.

“Following an injury sustained whilst on international duty with Colombia, Alfredo Morelos has undergone surgery to his thigh,” Rangers communicated on their website.
“Our medical team are pleased with the outcome of the operation and his rehabilitation programme is underway.
“He will return to training with the first team squad during pre season. We wish him well during his rehabilitation.”
