SC Freiburg: Does Hannibal come from Manchester United? Give up the African Cup
Tunisian professional from Man United
Hannibal’s name was missing Thursday from the announcement of the Tunisian selection for the African Cup of Nations in January. The 20-year-old Manchester United midfielder, the club’s second most valuable player after Frankfurt’s Ellyes Skhiri, is normally one of the team’s mainstays. In January, however, he would like to concentrate on his club career – and could end up in the Bundesliga.
“Hannibal told me that he didn’t feel ready for the CAN because he was in a difficult situation at the club,” said coach Jalel Kadri about his protégé’s non-appointment. Hannibal has only appeared on the pitch nine times for the ‘Red Devils’ this season. But the cancellation has less to do with concerns about poor form than with an impending change.

Strong Fabrizio Romano The right (Site notre bureau spécialisé) wants to cause a change in the air and be lent. Not missing the start of the second part of the season at his new club is apparently a priority for Hannibal rather than the continental tournament. Romano cites three clubs as possible buyers: in addition to Sevilla FC and Olympique Lyon, SC Friborg is also one of them.
The attacking midfielder joined the “Red Devils” U18s in 2019 at the age of 16 for a fee of 10 million euros after a season with the AS Monaco U17s. He made his debut for the English record champions in 2021 and spent the 2022/23 season on loan for Second Division club Birmingham.
Hannibal would be an unusual transfer for Breisgauer’s team. Not only is the Bundesliga’s eighth-ranked team generally rarely active during the winter transfer phase, with only one player signed in January in the last four years, but celebrity status is also unusual at Freiburg. With Matthias Ginter, who had a market value of €18 million upon his free transfer in the summer of 2022, only one new signing in the club’s history was more valuable than Hannibal, currently valued at €12 million. ‘euros.
