RANGERS ace Alfredo Morelos could yet leave Ibrox with Qatari side Al Duhail reportedly considering a fresh move for the striker – amid claims it could even ‘fast-track’ him to PSG.
Gers fans were able to breathe a sigh of relief when the transfer window slammed shut on Monday with Morelos still at Ibrox.

Speculation had mounted over the Colombian all summer with a move to French side Lille looking increasingly likely.
But after a bid was rejected, the French side moved on and Morelos remained with the Light Blues.
However, the Daily Record now say Qatari outfit Al Duhail are considering a fresh move for the forward after previously expressing their interest in the summer.
And the Record even claims that due to strong links between Al Duhail and PSG it could open up a pathway for Morelos to eventually join the mega-rich French side.

The transfer window remains open until October 25 in Qatar but Gers will be hesitant to let their star man go after standing firm.
The Doha outfit have already landed Mario Mandzukic, Medhi Benatia and Han Kwang-song from Juventus and have direct links with French giants PSG.
Morelos has previously suggested he would be against a move to the Middle East as he eyes Europe’s top five leagues.
It comes after Italian side Torino failed with a late deadline day loan bid.
The Serie A club made an offer to take Morelos to Italy for the season with the option to make the move permanent next summer.
Meanwhile, Benni McCarthy insists he had absolutely no hesitation recommending Bongani Zungu to Rangers.
Ibrox coach Michael Beale phoned the South African legend to get the lowdown on his fellow countryman.
Gers wanted to make sure every base was covered before concluding a deal for the midfielder.
And McCarthy was only too happy to tell them they would be signing one of the most complete midfielders in Europe.
