Gio van Bronckhorst has backed Alfredo Morelos to get Ibrox bouncing for the do or die Champions League showdown with Union Saint-Gilloise.
The Colombian grabbed a goal from the bench in the 2-0 Premiership win against Killie yesterday on his return to the side after five months out with a thigh tear. Antonio Colak nabbed his first competitive strike in the victory and van Bronckhorst has a decision to make for Tuesday’s Euro clash with the Belgians.
Rangers should also have Ryan Kent back after missing the last week and the manager has a call to make up top. But van Bronckhorst knows Morelos will be a goal threat even if he’s not fully match fit – and he has the ability to lift the entire stadium with his presence. The Light Blues gaffer said: “It is his first minutes for Rangers after five months. If you think about it, it is a really long time and almost half a year.
