Former Hammer Ravel Morrison could have his contract with Lazio terminated by mutual consent to allow him to pursue his troubled career elsewhere. The Italian press claim the Italian club are looking to save on his wages after his loan to Mexican club Atlas ended and it is claimed there no room in the Lazio squad for him.
He has been at Lazio since 2015 after being released West Ham, he is contracted until June 2019 with Serie A side, but reports claim both sides could agree to terminate the contract earlier allowing him to move to another club as a free agent.
The 25-year-old scored five times for the Hammers from 24 appearances. The former Manchester United midfielder joined West Ham in January 2012 as a 22-year-old costing £1m in fees and appearance bonuses.
Earlier this year Ravel message Carlton Cole on social media saying ‘Bring me back to West Ham, you have the power’
I’d love him back. He’s older, has hopefully learned some lessons, and I believe would thrive under Pelle’s guidance. He’d have to accept some pretty clear stipulations in his contract that if he messes up again, he’s out the door.
He isn’t going to change. He has been given no end of “last chances” and has obviously done absolutely nothing to persuade Lazio that he is worth keeping around. The fact that the club would consider cancelling his contract is confirmation that they accept he has no market value, which sums Morrison up. He’s a waster and it’s simply not worth the risk of upsetting a seemingly happy squad with a character of his type. Plenty of people have tried to help him but clearly SAF made the right call when he turfed him out.
Unhinged, does not have the head to be a professional footballer…
