Manchester United fans enjoyed Hannibal Mejbri’s first half cameo against Leeds on Wednesday.
The 20-year-old started the game at the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo, alongside Kobbie Mainoo and new signing Mason Mount in midfield.
While Erik ten Hag’s side enjoyed more possession and create some huge chances, the Reds were unable to find the breakthrough in the opening 45 minutes.
Mejbri – along with Mainoo – was one of the standout performers on the day.

The Tunisia International didn’t approach the game as a friendly as he put in some tough challenges. He even picked up a yellow card for his efforts.
United are expected to make a decision on Mejbri’s future later this summer, but it is clear from some of the tweets below that some fans have already made their mind up.
