Manchester United midfielder Hannibal Mejbri is having a medical at Burnley on Monday before what is expected to be a permanent transfer.

The 21-year-old Tunisia international joined United in 2019, since when he has had loan spells with Birmingham and Sevilla.

Hannibal did feature during pre-season but has not been involved in either of United’s opening two Premier League games.

Sources say no agreement has been reached yet but discussions are progressing positively.
