Hannibal Mejbri gets advice from Manchester United teammate

Add as preferred source on Google

Hannibal Mejbri was involved in Manchester United training again this week.

The talented Frenchman joined in the final Europa League preparations fot the semi-final, even though he is not eligible to play.

Hannibal, 18, does not qualify for the B-list as he has been at United for under two years.

It says everything about how highly United rate him that he was still involved in the preparations for this week’s semi-final.

Hannibal shared a picture from the latest training session, enjoying the company of Eric Bailly.

The teenager’s message read, ‘Les conseils’, which translates as ‘advice’.

Hannibal is also preparing to play United’s final under-23 game this coming Monday.

After this, his season may not be over, as a first team opportunity may be forthcoming.

With United heading into a packed run of fixtures, Hannibal could be used if Solskjaer looks to rotate.

There is even a possibility Hannibal is left out of the under-23 game with Derby and fast-tracked into the senior squad, with the team playing three league games in a space of five days.

Any advice he gets from senior stars like Eric Bailly will be very valuable, and he looks to be enjoying getting to make the step up.
