What do we think?
While The Sun have recently claimed that Leicester are interested in the 23-year-old Colombian, conflicting reports have also recently emerged from Scottish publication The Daily Record who have claimed that Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers “has no interest” in signing Morelos.
Considering that Gers manager Steven Gerrard has previously described the Colombian attacker as “the Rangers player who challenges him most”, as well as the fact that Morelos has been sent off on a total of seven different occasions during his time at Ibrox, it may be understandable why some Leicester fans have reacted negatively to the reports linking their club with the attacker.
