Football Insider claim that Spurs are plotting a late January transfer move for Rangers attacker Alfredo Morelos, with the report saying that Tottenham have been keeping tabs on the Colombian international who has been key to Steven Gerrard’s side looking to end Celtic’s dominance in Scotland.
Will Spurs Replace Kane In The Transfer Window?
We Have To
No Chance
The 23-year-old striker has been one of the best strikers in the Scottish Premiership for the past three years as stats from Transfermarkt show, yet plenty of Tottenham supporters on social media weren’t sold on a move for Morelos based off his infamous disciplinary record.
Here’s what plenty of Spurs fans had to say on Twitter about the club’s reported move for the attacker…
Absolutely not! Shocking attitude, terrible discipline and scores goals against teams who are basically league 1 quality. Has never scored against Celtic. Loses his rag constantly. It’s a huge NO from me.
