Alfredo Morelos looks set to end his nightmare spell at Santos.
The former Rangers fan favourite joined the Brazilian club in September 2023 after his Ibrox contract came to an end.
It was meant to be a huge statement from Santos to land the prolific Colombian international. However, Morelos only managed to score four times from 20 appearances during a troubled 10 month period.

It’s believed his time in Brazil is about to end and the 28-year-old will now join Atlético Nacional in his homeland.
South American transfer guru, Pipe Sierra, claims they are very close to finalising the agreement and tomorrow will be a vital day in the negotiations.
Morelos would then travel to undergo medical check-ups once he receives the 'OK'.
Many clubs from across Europe were also said to be keeping taps on the striker.
There’s a chance that Atlético Nacional may even settle for an initial six month loan before agreeing on a fixed price if they want to land Morelos on a long-term permanent deal.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
