Two teens and a 20-year-old, all from Hulme, chased down Rhamero West, 16, like a 'pack of wolves' before he was knifed to death on a street in Old Trafford in broad daylight in September, 2021, his mum Kelly Brown said after they were locked up.
Rhamero - a nephew of ex-Manchester City and England footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips - had been on his first day at college earlier.
CCTV footage released later showed the terrifying moments before his murder. Rhamero was with friends when he was spotted by Marquis Richards, then 17. Richards got out of a stolen BMW on the Princess Parkway in Manchester and started attacking a stolen BMW which Rhamero was driving.

Rhamero desperately tried to get away but following a high speed chase, he crashed his car into a tree and then tried to flee on foot.
He was being pursued by two stolen BMWs, and the CCTV footage revealed how Richards got out of the car and started sprinting after Rhamero after the collision - armed with a fearsome knife. The chase continued to Norton Street in Old Trafford, where Richards was closely followed by Ryan Cashin, then 19.
After Richards slowed up, Cashin caught up and took the knife from him, continuing to pursue Rhamero before stabbing him several times. Both were convicted of murder after a trial.
Giovanni Lawrence, then 20, was also convicted of murder under the joint enterprise law. He was the driver of one of the two stolen BMWs which had pursued Rhamero.
Richards will serve at least 18 years at Her Majesty's pleasure, while Cashin and Lawrence were given life sentences
