Manchester United midfielder arrives at Burnley for medical

The deadline for transfers is Friday and another Manchester United player appears to be on the move.

According to Sacha Tavolieri, three Burnley targets are having medicals today, including Manchester United midfielder Hannibal Mejbri.

The other players are Brighton’s Jeremy Sarmiento and Bournemouth’s Jaidon Anthony.

Hannibal hasn’t been able to cement a place in the United first team, despite being sent out on loan previously to Birmingham City and Sevilla.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims Burnley have reached a verbal agreement to sign Hannibal from United.

The medical tests are taking place today and the deal will be a loan including a mandatory buy clause.

Granted Hannibal passes his medical, I can’t see how this one won’t be done before Friday’s deadline. The Championship side still has plenty of time to get the deal done.
