Ravel Morrison, one of the jewels of the Manchester United quarry a decade ago, and a former Atlas player, admitted to stealing the booties of Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand to be able to sell them and buy food for his family.
In a talk with Ferdinand, Morrison said that because of the salary he was earning in those days, as a youth, he was engaged in stealing the boots of the big fish from the dressing room to feed his family.
“Each pair of boots is worth about 250 pounds. You would take a pair and go home and give a big dinner to your family,” he said. Morrison, who after giving several rounds for teams from all over Europe is now as a free agent.
“You were given about 30 pairs of boots. I don’t think it caused much harm, because I saw that they gave you all these boots and I thought that if I took a pair I could put food on the table tonight. I didn’t think it was a problem, now I see it differently. “, Added.
The explosion at the Morrison quarry was such that Alex Ferguson described it as one of the greatest talents of recent years.
However, Morrison never finished settling at United and left to go from team to team through Wales, Italy, Mexico, Sweden, the English Second Division, and the Netherlands, where Ado Hague he ended his contract this winter.
