Sevilla FC are already fed up with Hannibal Mejbri’s behavior!

On January 15, Sevilla FC announced the arrival of promising Tunisian midfielder from Manchester United, Hannibal Mejbri. “Hannibal Mejbri arrives on loan with option to buy. Sevilla FC and Manchester United FC have reached an agreement for the incorporation of Franco-Tunisian midfielder Hannibal Mejbri», indicated the Sevillian club. But while we expected to see the young midfielder gain playing time in La Liga, this is much more different than expected.

For his debut in the Rojiblanco jersey, he played 28 minutes of play and received a yellow card during the correction inflicted by Girona (5-1). But shortly before the Copa del Rey match against Atlético de Madrid, we learned that Hannibal Mejbri had a heated altercation with Mariano Diaz in training, according to Mundo Deportivo. Neither player was called up during the elimination against Atlético (0-1).

Quique Flores tackles Hannibal Mejbri

But nothing is getting better since coach Quique Sánchez Flores explained that the Tunisian will not be on the list against Osasuna this Sunday either. “We are going to give him the space he needs to understand where he is, that he is in Sevilla and what that means. He must know where he is and we want to see him. We spoke to him and we think he needs a little time to learn, we want to give him a little space, a little time to see things from the outside and then he will come back to the group »he assured, in strong words.

“He’s the kind of player who suddenly lands at a big club like Sevilla, with maximum expectations. He should take a step forward to understand what we want. Let’s see if the boy applies himself and I think that in the end he will understand perfectly what we want”, added the Andalusian coach. A hard blow for the Tunisian international (27 caps), who was also tracked by Olympique Lyonnais this winter.
