Morelos is only a loanee at the Medellin team and is contracted to Brazil's Santos, where Neymar currently plays and who were until recently managed by ex-Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha. He was sacked last month but before that his hardball negotiations were the reason Nacional couldn't land a permanent deal for the striker. But local news outlet El Meridiano is reporting that he is one of a number of players Juarez has his eyes on to strengthen his new outfit. They said: "Pumas is looking to strengthen its roster for next season in the Mexican soccer league and has its sights set on four Colombian players: Alfredo Morelos; William Tesillo, Edwin Cardona, and Andrés Felipe Román. "Former Atlético Nacional manager Efraín Juárez, now head coach of Pumas, left a significant mark on the Paisa club. "In four months, he won two titles: Liga Betplay and Copa Betplay. His departure from Nacional was due to issues with management. "The Mexican coach wants to strengthen his Pumas squad after the significant losses his team has suffered: Lisandro Magallán, Ricardo Galindo, Michel Rodríguez, and Alí Ávila. "Morelos was a key part of Juárez's journey at Nacional and would be the ideal forward Pumas is looking for to strengthen their team. "This season with Nacional, the Córdoba-born forward has played 20 matches, scoring 6 goals and providing 5 assists. Ex-Celtic star Efrain Juarez on managing Alfredo Morelos, Old Firm taunts and bonding with Ronny Deila over the Hoops "El Búfalo, as Morelos is known, plays for Atlético Nacional on loan and is still a member of the Brazilian club Santos." The ex-Parkhead man's adoration for the former Ibrox star is clear. Speaking previously to SunSport, he said: 'As soon as I came here, I sat with Alfredo and I could see in his eyes he is a really good person with a good heart. 'Physically, he's a tough guy. But when you eventually see his smile and he really talks to you, then you see an unbelievable person. 'At the beginning we made a deal. I said he would get everything from me and all I expected in return was everything from him. 'Now he is one of my leaders and we have an unbelievable relationship. On the pitch, he's the same Alfredo that was in his prime at Rangers. 'He's pushing himself, pressing high, keeping the ball, scoring goals, fighting for the team. I trust him 100 per cent.'

The team has already confirmed several departures as part of this overhaul following their sporting failure. In addition to the previously announced exits of Lisandro Magallán, Michell Rodríguez, and Ricardo Galindo, forward Alí Ávila has also left the team, with his departure officially announced by the club on social media this Thursday.

Te deseamos mucho éxito en tus futuros proyectos. #DePumasSoy #OhUniversidad — PUMAS (@PumasMX) May 9, 2025 During his time with the auriazules, Ávila played 28 matches and scored four goals. The 21-year-old striker arrived from Rayados for the Clausura 2024, and in the current tournament he only appeared in eight games before the team was eliminated. Pumas, who finished in tenth place in the standings and were eliminated by Rayados at the BBVA, will continue making adjustments under the leadership of Efraín Juárez. One of the names being considered as a reinforcement for the Apertura 2025 is Alfredo Morelos, who previously worked with Juárez at Atlético Nacional. 📸 Hector Vivas - 2025 Getty Images
