Leicester City and Luton Town have their eyes on Man United youngster Hannibal Mejbri this summer
Manchester United’s young talent, Hannibal Mejbri, is currently attracting significant interest, with three clubs vying for the 20-year-old’s signature.
After spending the last season on loan with Birmingham City, the Tunisian star gained popularity and became a fan favourite at the Championship club.
However, the situation has become more competitive as a couple of English clubs have also expressed interest in signing the young talent.
According to Tunisian outlet Noussour TN (h/t the Manchester Evening News), two English clubs have shown interest in securing a loan deal for the 20-year-old star for the upcoming season.
Leicester City and Luton Town are among the clubs mentioned as being interested in signing the young talent on loan. Moving to either of those clubs would offer significant development opportunities for Mejbri.
At Leicester, he would have the chance to progress under coach Enzo Maresca, while at Luton, he would get a chance to play in the Premier League.
The midfielder showcased his potential during his impressive season with Birmingham in the Championship last year.
Mejbri had a remarkable season, making 38 league appearances and contributing six goals during that time. Despite his impressive performance, he also received 10 bookings, showing his willingness to get involved in physical challenges in the centre of the field.
While Erik ten Hag will ultimately decide Mejbri‘s future, a loan move appears highly probable as the player aims to further upgrade his skills and development.
With the new season just three weeks away, a decision about the youngster’s future is still pending. The player has performed impressively during pre-season, and many believe he deserves an opportunity to compete for a place in the first-team squad.
The club will need to make a decision soon to provide clarity to the player and plan for the upcoming season.
It’s a crucial decision, and United should make a key decision for his further development. Their choice will determine which club gets the green light to secure his services on a temporary basis this summer.
