Former Manchester United and West Ham midfielder Ravel Morrison is closing in on a move to Ostersunds FK in Sweden, according to their technical director David Webb.
Morrison, 26, has struggled to make an impact at current club Lazio after moving to the Italian capital and has made just four league appearances since 2015.
'OFK may reinforce the team with another player,' a statement on the Ostersund website read.
'Ravel Morrison has joined the training camp in Marbella. OFK is currently negotiating with Lazio for a transfer to OFK for Ravel Morrison.'
'Ravel wants to get acquainted with the team and then we'll see how it goes.
Webb added: 'We have had contact with Ravel and his agent for a long time and discussed a move. Now he is close to a move but we have not signed any contract yet.'
A former England Under-21 international, Morrison was a highly-regarded youngster having come through the ranks at Old Trafford.
A number of off-field transgressions have overshadowed his football career to date - which included a move to West Ham in 2012.
Morrison impressed on a number of appearances under Sam Allardyce but was eventually loaned out to Birmingham, QPR and Cardiff before a shock move to Lazio beckoned.
He spent another temporary spell at QPR and was most recently on loan at Mexican side Atlas.
Ostersund were only formed in 1996 but under the guidance of Graham Potter - now at Swansea - they were promoted up to Sweden's top division and qualified for the Europa League after winning the Swedish Cup in 2017.
They went on to face Arsenal in last season's competition and were beaten 4-2 on aggregate despite earning a victory at the Emirates Stadium.
Fellow Englishman Ian Burchnall is the current manager following Potter's departure, with Ostersund finishing sixth last season.

What a waste of talent as the song goes "too much too young¿ He wants to be more gangster than a professional
Fair shout. If SAF couldn't put him on the straight and narrow, there was never any hope.

The ultimate proof that talent without application will never get you very far.
Why is it about talent maybe he just wasn't good enough. Where is Macheda? Just because you were a wonderkid doesn't mean you will be at the top.

If Ole really wants to be a hero in Manchester - how about reintroducing Morrison to Man U, Pogba etc.? Might be the one thing to light a spark in him. Talent doesn't disappear.

Some people just aren't cut out to be professional footballers. He just doesn't have a strong mentality.

He's in for a shocker. Lived near there and took teams to play there. In the middle of nowhere but like most of Sweden a slow but secure happy life. Unless he likes skiing as it's close to loads of skiing resorts. Good luck to him ,hope he's single as he'll have a ball!
