Manchester United have inserted a buy-back option into the deal that is taking Hannibal Mjebri to Sevilla.

The Red Devils have loaned Hannibal to the Spanish giants, which includes a buy option for the La Liga club.

Per the Manchester Evening News, if Sevilla do take up that option, United still retain control over the star's long-term future.

If United believe the 20-year-old is progressing at a rapid rate, they can buy him back for a specific fee.

Sevilla will have the option to sign Hannibal permanently for £17 million during this loan spell that lasts until the summer.

The Tunisia international did not go to the African Cup of Nations to sort out his club future.
