Man Utd starlet Hannibal Mejbri set for stunning transfer as fans worry they’ll ‘buy him back for £86m in two years’
MANCHESTER UNITED starlet Hannibal Mejbri has been lined up for a stunning transfer as fans worry he’ll be worth “£86million in two years”.
The 20-year-old midfielder is highly thought of by United fans after starring on loan at Birmingham City last season.
However, he has still made just three Premier League appearances for his parent club, with only one of them coming from the start.
Mejbri now appears set to leave Old Trafford on a permanent basis this summer in a quest for more first-team opportunities.
The Manchester Evening News report that Borussia Dortmund are interested in a move.
It is understood that the deal would see the Tunisia international head to Germany for £13million, plus performance-based add-ons.
The news has United fans concerned, with one tweeting: “Dortmund wants another cheap player they will sell for €100m (£86m) in 2yrs. Manchester United would add a buy back clause if they are wise, but I doubt that.”
Another wrote: “NOOOOOO… So that we’ll later sign him for £100m.”
A third supporter also added: “You already know he’s going to be worth £80m in 2 years if Dortmund want him.”
Meanwhile, one rival fan joked: “Knowing United. They will sell and buy him back for £180million in 2 years.”

Mejbri made 41 appearances on loan with Birmingham last term and appeared for Tunisia at the World Cup in Qatar.
He has been at United since 2019, having signed from Monaco for £8.5million as a 16-year-old.
French side Marseille have also taken an interest in Mejbri in the past.
