# Rangers: Alfredo Morelos could still sign new contract

**[Rangers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/) striker Alfredo Morelos could still sign a new contract to remain at Ibrox Stadium, according to a new report.**

### The Lowdown: Morelos’ future in doubt?

At the beginning of January, Stephen McGinn [told](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/podcasts/rangers-stephen-mcginn-alfredo-morelos-leave-transfer-contract/) the Go Radio Football Show Podcast that he thought Morelos’ time with the Gers was soon to be ‘over’, after more than five-and-a-half years at Ibrox, initially [arriving](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40332004) in June 2017.

It was recently [reported](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/alfredo-morelos-transfer-news-konyaspor-spfl/) that Turkish club Konyaspor were ‘exploring the opportunity’ to sign the striker, whose contract is set to [expire](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/profil/spieler/338962) at the end of the season, however the latest update indicates that he is not interested in a move.

### The Latest: Open to new deal

According to a [report](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-alfredo-morelos-open-to-signing-new-rangers-deal-as-he-rejects-turkey-move/) from Football Insider, the Colombian is not considering a move to Turkey before their transfer window closes on Wednesday, and he has knocked back interest.

It is then claimed that the 26-year-old is actually open to signing a new deal to remain with the Teddy Bears, with the club refusing to give up hope on extending his contract beyond the end of the season.

### The Verdict: Get it done

‘El Bufalo’ has a fantastic record in front of goal at Rangers, netting on [121](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/338962) occasions in 255 appearances, while he has also registered 56 assists in that time, displaying his playmaking talents.

There were signs earlier in the season that a move may have been the best outcome for both parties, with the marksman clearly out of favour with former manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst, appearing from the bench in his first [11](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/leistungsdaten/spieler/338962) [Scottish Premiership](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/scottish-premiership-news/) outings.

However, the ‘[terrific](https://twitter.com/mrandrewdickson/status/1365024089975500809?s=20&t=EZpm3bJQdsgFTrkWfQJBZQ)‘ forward, as hailed by Sky Sports producer Andrew Dickson, has been given a new lease of life under Michael Beale, scoring [five](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/leistungsdaten/spieler/338962) goals and recording three assists in his last seven league games.

As such, it is fantastic news that Morelos is now open to signing a new deal, and Rangers should look to offer him acceptable terms at the earliest opportunity.
