In the end, he will not have missed anything important in Ivory Coast. Eager to leave Manchester United this winter, Hannibal Mejbri chose not to go to the CAN with Tunisia this winter to find the right exit in order to relaunch his young career. And after several days of hesitation while OL were on the move, the 21-year-old midfielder chose to join Sevilla FC. Appearing once last week against Girona (5-1 defeat), the former Monaco player was absent from the Copa del Rey quarter-final against Atlético de Madrid this Thursday. And this Saturday, Mundo Deportivo gave the reason for this surprising absence.
During training, Hannibal Mejbri allegedly had a heated altercation with Mariano Diaz. This is why the former OL and Real Madrid scorer was also absent to face the Colchoneros. Questioned at a press conference, Quique Sánchez Flores, the Sevillian coach, explained that he was going to support the young player so that he acclimatizes as best as possible in this new environment: “after being with him, talking to him and seeing his first minutes in Girona, we are going to give him the space to understand where he is, that he is in Seville and what that means. He must know where he is. And we want to see it. We spoke with him and we think he needs to have some time to learn, we wanted to give him space, time for him to see things from the outside and then he will come back inside. team.»
