Cisse, who won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2005, has had stints all around Europe with Lazio, Marseille, Auxerre, Kuban Krasnodar and Queens Park Rangers.
His eight-year-old son was offered the chance to follow in his footsteps and sign for Liverpool, but he chose to join League One Crewe instead.
His mother posted a picture of Cassius signing his contract on her Instagram page.
She wrote next to the picture: ”I proudly watched this little man sign his 1st professional contract last night. It has been an intense few months travelling between 3 elite academies.
“It was an extremely tough decision to help him make with him being so young & The most important factor is that he enjoys it & as a result Cassius made HIS choice to sign with Crewe Alex.
“We are extremely grateful to LFC, MUFC & EFC for all the time they have invested in Cassius which has all helped him progress to this day & hope their support will continue.”
The Red Devils may recover from the snub, though, as it has recently emerged that Man United have submitted the bid for Roma’s Kevin Strootman.
