Ravel Morrison hints at Sheffield United transfer as he ‘likes’ tweet claiming he was seen at Bramall Lane
RAVEL MORRISON could be on the verge of a Premier League comeback with Sheffield United.
The attacker is currently a free agent after leaving Swedish club Osterunds earlier this month following the expiration of his short-term contract.
Now the 26-year-old is believed to be in talks with the promoted Blades over a deal to join Chris Wilder’s outfit.
And eagle-eyed supporters believe the much-maligned magician is on his way to South Yorkshire after spotting he liked a tweet claiming he had been seen leaving Bramall Lane with his agent on Thursday.
Former Manchester United prodigy Morrison demonstrated his abilities in the top-flight after leaving the Red Devils for West Ham in 2012.
The ex-England youth international was tipped for a senior call-up after a stunning start to the 2013/14 campaign before a fall-out with then-boss Sam Allardyce.
He was sent out on loan to QPR, helping the Rs to promotion before heading to Cardiff City the following year.
Still frozen out at the Hammers, Morrison signed a pre-contract agreement to join Serie A giants Lazio and moved to Italy on a free transfer in July 2015.
But things failed to work out with for him in Rome and he was soon again sent out on loan as he returned to QPR first before heading to Mexico to join Atlas in August 2017.
He rediscovered his form and was soon on his way to Sweden, signing a six-month contract with Osterunds in February.

However, he left the club earlier this month as he searches for his next venture.
Despite controversy away from the pitch, Morrison’s talents on it are undoubted.
And Wilder has previously shown he is not afraid to take on such challenges after bringing Ched Evans and Gary Madine to United.
