# Palace fans react to club interest in Alfredo Morelos

A lot of Crystal Palace fans are reacting to the latest news suggesting that they are interested in Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos.

[According to the Goal](https://www.goal.com/es/noticias/rangers-empieza-a-buscar-el-reemplazo-de-alfredo-morelos/1ibfwoqd6rfzt1i4lneemkaqt8), the Scottish club are set to sell the striker in the summer.

Palace are not the only team [interested](https://www.goal.com/es/noticias/rangers-empieza-a-buscar-el-reemplazo-de-alfredo-morelos/1ibfwoqd6rfzt1i4lneemkaqt8) as fellow Premier League sides Leicester, Newcastle and Aston Villa as well as European giants Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid also have set their eyes on the Colombian.

The [report](https://www.goal.com/es/noticias/rangers-empieza-a-buscar-el-reemplazo-de-alfredo-morelos/1ibfwoqd6rfzt1i4lneemkaqt8) outlines that Steven Gerrard is demanding €40m for his signature, despite the player’s market value being just €15m.

He has been Gerrard’s key man this season, [scoring](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/profil/spieler/338962) 12 goals and providing three assists in 26 appearances.

Meanwhile, Palace’s top goalscorer is [Jordan Ayew](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/67491/Show/Jordan-Ayew) with eight goals, while fellow forward [Christian Benteke](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/68312/Show/Christian-Benteke) has one goal. This highlights that Morelos could add some much-needed quality upfront that the Eagles are lacking.

He is also [only](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alfredo-morelos/profil/spieler/338962) 23 years of age, and could add some youth to a squad that is on [average](https://www.101greatgoals.com/news/average-age-of-premier-league-squads-arsenal-youngest-liverpool-oldest-of-top-6/)the second oldest in the league this season.

Here’s how some Palace fans reacted to the reports:
