Ravel Morrison demands £30k a week from Manchester United?

Manchester United's prodigy Ravel Morrison is believed to be demanding £30,000-a-week wages from the Premier League champions.

The 18-year-old, whose ability has been praised by teammate Rio Ferdinand, has been linked with a move away from the Red Devils, with Newcastle United recently having had a bid rejected for the teen winger.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that a deal for Morrison to remain at Old Trafford hasn't been completed due to the player's 'unrealistic demands'.

It appears that the winger has requested £30,000 a week to stay with the North West side after the Red Devils offered £12,000, according to the Daily Mail.

Morrison, who has been linked with a switch to Roma, has only made three first-team appearances for United.
