Could Rangers have a £30M windfall on their hands?

Rangers went top of the league yesterday thanks to an epic win at Tynecastle, but the less noted stat is that striker Alfredo Morelos has equalised the historic SPL record of having scored seven matches in a row.

And this Wednesday he has a huge chance to own the record all for himself with the visit of Aberdeen to Ibrox and an eight match in a row with a goal to his credit.

He wouldn’t be able to extend to nine, due to suspension for next weekend’s trip to Dens Park, but midweek his value could increase yet more should he net another goal.

Frankly the striker’s form is on fire right now, and those who doubted his ability to go to the top of the game look very silly indeed. We’ve had our doubting moments but when he really delivers he’s unplayable.

Opposition fans have laughed at the notion of his value being £20M – well, on current form, and with crazy prices, it’s probably just increased again.

Get that record on Wednesday and Rangers can command yet more. £30m is not a silly idea for a 22-year old Colombian international.

January could be an interesting month for Alfredo Morelos and Rangers.
