Former Manchester United starlet Ravel Morrison has revealed he used to steal Wayne Rooney's boots in order to feed his family.
Morrison was one of the most talented players in United's academy during Sir Alex Ferguson's reign as first-team coach.
Speaking on the FIVE YouTube channel, Morrison said to United legend Rio Ferdinand: "Remember I got kicked out of the changing room for thieving your boots?'
Ferdinand answered: "Tell me if I'm wrong but you were taking our boots down to Goals to show your mates…."
Morrison then replied: "Obviously I was on scholar's wage, I was young.
"You used to get like £250 for a pair of boots. You take two pairs of boots, you get £500 and go home and buy your family a Chinese or something.
"You guys used to get like 30 pairs of boots. I didn't mean it to cause harm but when I saw yours or [Wayne] Rooney's deliveries, you'd get 20-30 pairs at a time, I was thinking one pair to put some food on the table at home, it wouldn't be a big problem."
