Manchester United have announced that academy midfielder Hannibal Mejbri has signed a new long-term contract with the club.

The 18-year-old arrived in England from French club Monaco in the summer of 2019, and has represented the Under-23s throughout the season.

The Paris-born prospect has taken no time at all to establish himself into Neil Wood’s team, scoring four goals and registering seven assists in 18 matches.

Mejbri’s new deal has seen him commit his future to the Red Devils, and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has already identified him as one to join up with the first team.
