Tunisian midfielder Hannibal Mejbri has arrived in Sevilla to finalise his loan transfer from Manchester United. The deal includes a €20 million option to buy for the La Liga club.
Mejbri’s journey to Sevilla
The 20-year-old playmaker, who has been plying his trade in the Premier League, is set to continue his development in Spain. Sevilla has secured his services on a temporary basis, with the potential for a permanent move should they choose to exercise the buy option included in the agreement.
Mejbri’s style of play is characterized by his creative midfield presence, offering a blend of technical skill and vision that could prove beneficial for Sevilla’s midfield dynamics. His arrival is anticipated to bolster the squad’s options as they compete in domestic and potentially European competitions.
The loan move provides Mejbri with an opportunity for more regular first-team football, which could aid in his progression as a professional footballer. With his contract at Manchester United still in place, the loan to Sevilla allows for a continued relationship with the Premier League side, leaving the door open for a return depending on his performances in Spain.
Sevilla and Manchester United have yet to release official statements regarding the completion of the loan deal. However, Mejbri’s arrival in Sevilla indicates that the formalities of the transfer are nearing conclusion, and an announcement is expected imminently.
