Alfredo Morelos has been given the green light to make his Santos debut as he prepares to make his first appearance for over three months.
The former Rangers striker ended his long wait for a new club this month by signing for Brazilian fallen giants Santos after a move to Fenerbahce fell through.
And Santos boss Diego Aguirre has confirmed that Morelos will make his bow tomorrow when his side meet Cruzeiro in the league.
He said: "Alfredo has been training hard and is physically in good condition. We are happy with him.
"He is in the squad for the game and will play a part."
Morelos could even start because Santos striker Yeferson Soteldo is suspended for the match. They are currently in the relegation zone in Brazil's Serie A.
The 27-year-old last started a game at the end of May in a 2-2 draw with Hearts at Ibrox where he said his farewells to Rangers after six years at the club.
His last goals came in a double over St Mirren in April, but those were the only goals he scored in the league since the start of February.
