If a page ranks in the wrong country and is redirected, does that problem pass to the new page?
Hi guys, I'm having a weird problem:
A new multilingual site was launched about 2 months ago. It has correct hreflang tags and Geo targetting in GSC for every language version.
We redirected some relevant pages (with good PA) from another website of our client's. It turned out that the pages were not ranking in the correct country markets (for example, the en-gb page ranking in the USA). The pages from our site seem to have the same problem.
Do you think they inherited it due to the redirects? Is it possible that Google will sort things out over some time, given the fact that the new pages have correct hreflangs?
Is there stuff we could do to help ranking in the correct country markets?

I'm Paris Childress. My foray into Internet marketing began in 2003. Recent projects have taken me to countries that include China, Turkey, Bulgaria and Romania. I founded Hop Online in Bulgaria with the aim of establishing a multilingual, cost-competitive search and social marketing outpost based in Eastern Europe. So far, so good.
I'm a proud native of New Orleans and currently live in Sofia, Bulgaria with my lovely wife, Kamelia, and daughter, Raya. Frequent excursions into Bulgaria's majestic mountains and historic countryside keep me occasionally offline and well-balanced.
