Irons: “Morrison desperate to return”
With the player due to leave Lazio in January for “personal reasons” the club has elaborated on the position surrounding the former player and England under 21 international.
A top level source revealed to ClaretandHugh that the player is desperate for the opportunity of a second chance at the Boleyn.
His enthusiasm to return has been relayed the the club through third parties but the likelihood remains remote after yet another failed attempt to settle into a club – this time in Serie A.
It follows well known problems at Manchester United and with the Irons, QPR and Cardiff where he was loaned out under the former manager.
Our source explained: “He would love to return to West Ham. We have been made very well aware of that but given his history and the fact that he is now 22 presents a problem.
“We have a very settled squad and we can’t afford to take any sort of chance on it becoming unsettled.”
