Ravel Morrison Set for Lazio Medical Ahead of Summer Move

Midfielder Ravel Morrison, banished from the first team set up at West Ham, looks set to end his England nightmare with a move to Lazio at the end of the season.

The Hammers are willing to let the former England U21 prospect go for free this month, and Serie A outfit Lazio are closing in on his signature, with the player due for a medical tomorrow ahead of signing a four-year-deal, claims Gianluca DiMarzio.

Morrison hasn’t featured for West Ham since August, and failed to impress during a loan spell at Cardiff which was cut short last month, and with no takers for hi in England, his only option is to move abroad.

A free agent in the summer under his current contract at Upton Park, Morrison is able to negotiate with foreign clubs over signing a pre-contract deal, which sees them join that club at the end of their current deal.

Lazio would’ve liked to take Morrison this month on a free transfer, but the midfielder had already played for two clubs this term, and would not be eligible for Lazio until the 2015/16 season.
