Several clubs have shown an interest in the 20-year-old this summer, with Borussia Dortmund even tabling an offer earlier in the window.

Teams in England and France have also eyed both permanent and loan moves for Hannibal.

Although talks are ongoing about a potential loan move, the Manchester Evening News report that United have ruled out selling the youngster this summer.

Figures at the club, including Ten Hag, have been impressed with his performances during pre-season.

He starred in the Red Devils’ final friendly against Athletic Bilbao in Dublin on Sunday as his side played out a 1-1 draw.

There are still doubts over the first-team playing time he will get this season, though, and Hannibal may still depart on loan.

Premier League newcomers Luton are amongst the clubs who could sign him on a temporary basis.

Hannibal spent last season on loan at Birmingham, making 41 appearances across all competitions.

He also has three senior United appearances to his name, with all of them coming in the Premier League.

The Tunisia international has continued to be a regular for his country too, and featured at last year’s World Cup in Qatar.
