Alfredo Morelos '˜to be offered new Rangers deal' amid Bordeaux link

Rangers are set to offer Alfredo Morelos a new deal at Ibrox, in a bid to stave off interest from Bordeaux.

The Ligue 1 side are understood to be keen on the Colombian striker, while Rennes and an unnamed third team have also expressed an interest.

The Ibrox side threw out an offer of around £3.75 million earlier this month and now look set to tie up Morelos on a new, improved deal.
