Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos "must take advantage of his situation" by joining a Premier League club this summer, according to countryman Hugo Rodallega.

Hugo Rodallega has urged Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos to further his career by joining Newcastle United at the end of the season.

Morelos is rumoured to be on the radar of a number of Premier League clubs, as well as La Liga giants Atletico Madrid, after scoring 77 goals in 137 appearances for the Gers.

Former Fulham and Wigan Athletic winger Rodallega, who has previously played under Newcastle boss Steve Bruce, believes that the time is right for his Colombian compatriot to consider departing Ibrox.

"Alfredo is still a young man and he must take advantage of his situation," he is quoted as saying by the Daily Record. "He is in a great position in his career because he scored many goals and many clubs will want to sign him.

"He has the confidence and ability to play in the English Premier League. He must be clear and tell his current club that he wants to go there. He has to leave Scottish football and move to a bigger league.

"Either England or Spain. Alfredo has shown what he can do in Scotland. He's proved himself there and showed what a good player he is. Now it's time for him to go to a league that is more demanding.

"If he gets the chance to work with Steve Bruce - someone I know very well - I know he would enjoy that because Bruce is a coach who gives his strikers a lot of confidence. That would be perfect for Alfredo."

Former Rangers striker Kenny Miller recently urged the club to cash in on Morelos during the next transfer window.
