Kris Boyd slams Rangers star Alfredo Morelos as pundit hits Ibrox striker with 'deplorable' tag

Kris Boyd has ripped into current Rangers man Alfredo Morelos for failing to end his Light Blues career on a high note - asking the Colombian star on why he's 'decided to chuck it'.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Morelos was one of football's top strikers and perhaps even considered one of Europe's rising young strikers. A return of 30 goals in 48 games in 2018-19 - with 14 of those arriving in European competition - before a similar tally of 29 the following season, meant that Rangers seemingly had a top quality young bagsman on their hands.

But since the restart of football with no crowds, it has all gone wrong for the controversial man. Constantly being dogged by fitness issues that are seemingly of his own doing, Morelos has been in and out of Rangers' side, with Antonio Colak, Kemar Roofe and Fashion Sakala all keeping him out of the starting XI; and when you add to this his poor form, bizarre attitude and expiring contract, it's sad to see where it all went wrong for a player who was consistently linked with Champions League stalwarts in his pomp.
