ALFREDO MORELOS has been named as the cinch Premiership's player of the month for December. 

The Rangers striker was on fire at the end of 2021, as the Colombian scored four goals in five games. 

Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men won all of those matches, as they maintained their place at the summit of the top flight.

The fans' favourite kicked off the month by showing superb determination to net against Dundee, bustling through two defenders to net in the 3-0 win.

He then opened the scoring eight days later at Tynecastle as Gers secured a win over Hearts.

Morelos then got the breakthrough goal against St Johnstone before rounding off his month with the clincher in the Boxing Day win over St Mirren.

van Bronckhorst heaped praise on the frontman.

He said: "He has done well since I came in and he has scored some important goals that have been important for the team.

"He is working hard and his attitude has been really good, and he has been a positive factor for the team."
