Ravel Morrison has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Wigan Athletic as Warren Joyce looks for a reunion with the former Manchester United attacker.

Morrison was once regarded as one of the biggest prospects in English football but the 23-year-old has failed to settle at a number of clubs and is currently out of favour at Lazio.

According to The Sun, his current situation at the Italian giants has led to Joyce looking to bring the former England Under-21 international back to England as he looks to offer the player a route back into first-team football.

The pair worked together when Joyce was on the backroom staff at Old Trafford and Joyce believes that he could be the man to get the best out of Morrison, who has also had spells at West Ham United, Birmingham City and Cardiff City.

Joyce is eager to strengthen in the final third with Wigan currently six points adrift of safety in the Championship and possessing the worst scoring record in the division.
