Hannibal Mejbri set to leave Manchester United for this club
Hannibal Mejbri is set to join Birmingham City on loan from Manchester United before the deadline day of the summer transfer window, according to Manchester Evening News.
The 19 year old Tunisian international has already agreed terms with Birmingham City and is now waiting for both clubs to finalise the transfer.
Mejbri reached an agreement to join Birmingham City on loan weeks ago but there have been delays in the transfer with both clubs yet to agree a fair wage split as well as guarantees about the attacking midfielder’s playing time.
Another reason for the delay is due to Manchester United offering the 19 year old a new contract before he leaves the club on loan.
Mejbri last signed a ‘long-term contract’ extension in March 2021 and has been offered another extension on top of that to secure his future at the club.
Birmingham City currently sit 21st in the Championship, having one win, two draws and three defeats so far in the new season.
