One of the many promises that came out of the quarry of the Manchester United during the years of Sir Alex Ferguson on the bench was Ravel Morrison, a name that could never stand out as a star in his career but has an anecdote worth telling, which was recently confessed.
The player born in England and with Jamaican origin spoke with his former teammate in the Red Devils, Rio Ferninand, He said he stole the shoes of the team’s stars. “Each pair was worth about £ 250. You would grab a pair and go home and give your family a big dinner.”, he claimed.
Morrison is clear that he was wrong but that, at the time, he did not feel that he was making a mistake. “They gave you like 30 pairs of tennis shoes”, said the current ADO Den Haag player of the Dutch league.

“I don’t think it would cause much damage, because I saw that they were given so many and I thought that if I grabbed a pair I could put food on the table that night. I didn’t think it was a problem, now I see it differently”he pointed.
After leaving Manchester United, Morrison became a globetrotter passing through West Ham, Birmingham, Queens Park Rangers, Cardiff, Sheffield and Middlesbourgh in England as well as Lazio in Italy, Atlas in Mexico and Ostersunds in Sweden.
