Rangers boss Steven Gerrard warns Nice that bidding for Alfredo Morelos would be a waste of time

RANGERS boss Steven Gerrard has told Nice they will be wasting their time making a bid for Alfredo Morelos.

Reports on Tuesday morning claimed the Ligue 1 outfit were considering an £8million swoop for the Colombian.

But Gerrard, who confirmed the signing of Matt Polster will depend on the club securing a work permit for the United States international, said: “There’s been nothing concrete.

“At the moment in this window, Alfredo won’t be going anywhere. But every one of our players has got a price, I’m not naive enough to sit here and say they haven’t.

“But none of my players will be going out the door, certainly in this window, so anyone who is preparing a bid or thinking of a bid will be wasting their time.”
