Ex-Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers wants Alfredo Morelos at Leicester

Former Celtic boss is eyeing a current Rangers star as one of his first signings as Leicester City boss.

According to TEAMtalk, Rodgers has told scouts to take a look at Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos and he could offer him a route to West Ham.

The 22-year-old Colombian has scored 28 goals in 41 games but has also picked up four red cards this season.

Josip Vukovic reveals his release clause amid Rangers interest

Reported Rangers target Josip Vukovic claims that he has a release clause of just €4m (less than £3.5m) in an interview with Vitez.

The 26-year-old has been linked with Chelsea, Leicester City, Wolves, Benfica and Rangers recently (talkSPORT) after impressing for Maritimo.

And Rangers could land themselves a bargain if they win the race for the Croatian holding midfielder.

Steven Gerrard tips Joe Worrall for captaincy

Joe Worrall scored his first goal for Rangers in the Scottish Cup clash with Aberdeen and Steven Gerrard has heaped praise on the young defender.

The 22-year-old, who is on loan from Nottingham Forest, has been tipped to become a future captain by Gerrard.

The Rangers boss said (quotes via The Scottish Sun): “I thought Joe was outstanding, it was a man-of-the-match performance and he will be a captain of whatever team he plays for. He is a leader and he stepped up today.”
