Alfredo Morelos in rousing Rangers message as star 'stronger everyday' as he steps up injury fightback

Star striker Alfredo Morelos has provided an update on his recovery as he looks towards next season.

The Rangers star sat out the end of last campaign, missing huge clashes both domestically and in Europe.

He picked up an injury during international duty which led to surgery on his thigh.

But he is now working his way back to full fitness with the hopes of getting involved in pre-season.

The striker will be looking to come back with a bang after being forced to miss the Europa League final defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt in Seville, as well as his side's Scottish Cup Final triumph.

He was spotted in Spain mixing with fans and also showed his support during the Hampden showdown.

And now he has taken to social media to update fans on his fitness journey.

Posting the short clip on Instagram, Morelos wrote "Cada dia mas fuerte vamos" which translates to "Stronger everyday, let's go."

The Colombian was in great form under Gio van Bronckhorst before injury struck, netting 19 goals and providing eight assists in all competitions.

A club statement at the time of his injury read: "Following an injury sustained whilst on international duty with Colombia, Alfredo Morelos has undergone surgery to his thigh.

"Our medical team are pleased with the outcome of the operation and his rehabilitation programme is underway.

"He will return to training with the first team squad during pre season. We wish him well during his rehabilitation."
