Brendan Rodgers ready to 'launch bid' for Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos

[Walterbear 557]

Dermot press people unsettling him I suspect. And where is that conflict of interest thread re the SPFL / INM bloke?

It's a bit puzzling why he would sign a 4 year contract if all along he was looking to leave less than a year later.

It isn't remotely puzzling unless you think a footballer would turn down a pay increase.

I would if I thought it would make my imminent exit considerably more profitable for me.

I'm sure Morelos and his agent will get a pretty good payment if/when he moves during his contract.  

 

It's a short career, so they tend to snap anything they can get up.

Nice name.....His valuation is unsurprising. It’s £20m to start with £25m the suggested offer. I’m quite sure there will be plenty who will try and get us short changed. I hope they all shite pineapples!

I think Morelos and his agent wil be aiming a lot higher than Leicester.
It smells more like Brenda is giving his pal Liewell a hand out to mess with Alfie's head. We'd be hard pressed to challenge them without Alfredo.
However, £25M could buy us a real good midfielder and a different type of centre/goalscorer.

Even if we had 25 million we won't be spending it on 2 players. The most we would spend would be about 10 million between those 2 positions.

Probably but Morelos aside a couple of £5 million additions would ease us further ahead of the sheep etc of this league while giving us another nudge towards 55. And a million or so on another good young prospect would be nice.
