How much do you guys seriously think we will get for Alves?  We got em for free, he is 36 and is playing like dog shit. I would think the club should just be happy to be rid of the salary.

I say 1M tops.

It was an undisclosed wee, according to Wikipedia.

We wont get a penny for him.  We will be happy to get his salary off the books.  At 36 no club in their right mind would pay a fee for a player of that age.

Nothing imminent on Bruno Alves’ potential move to Parma. Reports that Fenerbahce made a £2.6m bid for Alfredo Morelos are complete rubbish. Interesting how certain journos report such a false and obviously undervalued bid whilst inflating the value of players at other clubs...

 

Who would have thought.

 

NB: Gersnet board is a bit sluggish right now.

Rangers defender Bruno Alves is reportedly undergoing a medical with Parma as the Portugal international prepares to join the Serie A outfit ahead of the 2018-19 campaign.

 

Alves joined Rangers from Cagliari last summer, and made 25 appearances in all competitions for the Scottish giants during the 2017-18 season.

 

The 36-year-old has a contract at Ibrox until next summer, but according to Sky Sport Italia, the experienced centre-back is currently having a medical with Parma.

 

Alves, who was a part of the Portugal squad that competed at the 2018 World Cup, has represented Zenit St Petersburg, Fenerbahce, Cagliari and Rangers since leaving Porto in 2010.

 

Parma finished second in Serie B last season to secure a return to the top flight.

First up, Rangers boss Steven Gerrard is keen to land the signing of Newcastle United winger Alex Gilliead, according to the Chronicle. The Gers could even land the 22-year-old on a free as his contract at St James' Park has expired and he has not been offered a new deal on Tyneside. The former England U17 international is, however, also attracting interest from England's lower leagues.

Gilliead, from Durham, hasn't made a senior appearance for the Magpies but has plenty of experience, racking up over 120 senior games during loan spells at Carlisle United, Luton Town and most recently Bradford City, where he spent the last 18 months, scoring twice.

Rangers director of football Mark Allen must be sacked if he accepts the reported seven-figure bid for Rangers talisman Alfredo Morelos, due to the Colombian’s crucial role within the team and the paltry nature of the offer.


The Turkish news outlet Tavkim reported that Fenerbahce have tabled a £2.5million bid for the Colombian, but Allen and Steven Gerrard must ignore this bid.


A natural goal threat is what any debutant manager needs to take the pressure off, and Morelos is one of the Gers most electrifying attacking options, so it must be Allen’s absolute priority to supply Gerrard with this ahead of his first season at the Ibrox.


Morelos, 22, scored an impressive 14 goals in the Scottish Premier League last time out, as well as aiding his team-mates with six assists.


In fact, during his debut season at the Ibrox the dynamic forward lead the team with 18 goals in all competitions, and Gerrard cannot be without this attacking presence.


The fact that the former Liverpool captain has brought in more attacking players should not tempt the Gers bosses into selling the former Colombia under-20 international, as his goals record speaks for itself.


In the league alone, the 22-year-old accounted for a goal every two games just about, scoring every 181 minutes for the Gers.


This is an impressive statistic, and any of Gerrard’s summer additions do not have the experience within Scotland to be able to deliver this expectation immediately.


Although the Colombian is likely to succeed in Turkey, Rangers must make it their absolute priority to retain his attacking services, as the pressure to mount a serious challenge to Celtic’s silverware will be much reduced with his presence.


This responsibility lies with Allen himself, and he must face the consequences if he leaves Gerrard without one of the most exciting players in Scottish football.
