Rangers forward Alfredo Morelos has signed with a new agency, as reported by The Daily Record's Scott Burns.

The lowdown

The Colombian joined Rangers from Finnish outfit HJK Helsinki in 2017 for a fee of just under £1.1m. He penned a contract extension in March 2019, but that £33,000-per-week deal is due to expire in less than 18 months' time.

According to Transfermarkt, the £11.7m-rated Morelos is Rangers' second-most valuable asset behind £12.6m-rated Ryan Kent.

The latest

As per The Daily Record, Morelos has parted company with World In Motion, the agency which negotiated his move to Rangers.

He is now represented by Footfeel and Echo Sports, whose biggest clients are Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez and Paris Saint-Germain's Achraf Hakimi.

They will be 'rolling out the red carpet' for Morelos and trying to generate buzz through social media, while Burns wrote that the news is a 'concern' for Rangers ahead of the expiry of the 25-year-old's contract.

The agency have the required connections to secure a dream move for the Colombian to one of Europe's top five leagues.

The verdict

Morelos has been open about his desire to take what he feels is the next step in his career. Back in September, he said that he hoped 'the opportunity to leave will be given' after Rangers failed to reach an agreement with interested parties (via The Daily Record).

It could hurt to lose the 25-year-old, who is Rangers' top scorer this season with 19 goals in all competitions and who brings a 'brave' mentality, according to Borussia Dortmund boss Marco Rose.

In the short-term, Giovanni van Bronckhorst will just hope that this latest twist doesn't prove to be a distraction as he prepares his players for the second leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie against Red Star Belgrade on Thursday night.
