Rangers and Manchester United are in talks over a deal for youngster Hannibal Mejbri – but both teams may need to make concessions for a move to take place.
Hannibal joined Man United‘s academy in 2019 from Monaco, despite interest from Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona.
The midfielder, who represented France at Under-16 and 17 level before switching to Tunisia at senior level in 2021, reportedly signed for the Red Devils for a fee in the region of £4.2m, potentially rising to £8.4m in add-ons.
The signs were looking good for the teenager when he won United’s Denzil Haroun Reserve Player of the Year award for the Under-21s in 2021 and made his senior debut in May of that year.
A productive loan spell at Birmingham City then followed in the 2022/23 Championship campaign, with Hannibal making 41 appearances for the Blues.
However, the last year has been less fruitful for the France-born player. Despite making 10 appearances in all competitions for United last season, he never looked like becoming a regular in the first-team.
