Manchester United U18 coach Neil Ryan says they're delighted with the progress of Hannibal Mejbri.

Ryan lifted the lid on what Mejbri's personality was like behind the scenes - and was full of praise.

“He comes with a high reputation, good player, lovely character, good kid," he told the Evening Standard.

“He's working very hard and like every young kid in the club, he is learning still and we are seeing some really positive things from him on the pitch.

“He is part of a group of boys who are trying to push on and develop.

“They are all at stages in their career and it's not just him. It's a group of 28-30 players. He is one of a number of boys we have high hopes for."
