Ruud van Nistelrooy doesn’t pretend to know what’s caused Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s fall-out with Alfredo Morelos. But the PSV boss is certain his old friend will have only done what he fully believes is best for Rangers and his squad.
The Ibrox side are flying out to Eindhoven for the crucial Champions League play-off decider without their talisman. Rangers’ record European scorer has been left behind amid concerns over his fitness levels and attitude following a five-month injury lay-off.
The row seems to have come to a head after the Colombian was sent off just 13 minutes after coming off the bench in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Hibs but van Nistelrooy admits he’s not been keeping tracks on the latest Morelos melodrama. However, he knows his old Holland team-mate van Bronckhorst well enough to know the Ibrox gaffer won’t have taken the decision lightly.
