Manchester United have been busy in the summer transfer window.
Another Manchester United player has been axed ahead of Friday’s transfer deadline day.
So far this summer, United have brought in the likes of Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui.
It has also been reported that Paris Saint Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte is edging closer to a move to Old Trafford.
In turn, the likes of Donny van de Beek, Facundo Pellistri, Willy Kambwala, Aaron Wan Bissaka and Mason Greenwood have all been sold.
Ahead of Friday’s deadline day, Scott McTominay is set to join Serie A side Napoli and on Wednesday morning, the permanent departure of Hannibal Mejbri was confirmed.
The 21-year-old has left United and signed for Championship side Burnley in a deal reportedly worth an initial fee of £5.4 million.
A statement from Burnley read: “Burnley Football Club are delighted to confirm the arrival of Tunisia international Hannibal Mejbri on a four-year deal from Manchester United for an undisclosed fee.

Upon signing for the club, Hannibal said: “I’m very excited. Very happy to be here and I can’t wait to see the fans. I have played against Burnley before at Turf Moor and the atmosphere was amazing.
“After speaking to the coach [Scott Parker] the project sounded good to me and hopefully we can make success.”
United wrote on their official website: “Hannibal has completed a permanent transfer from Manchester United to Championship side Burnley. The 21-year-old has moved to the Clarets after spending five years at United.
“After spending pre-season and the start of 2024/25 as part of Erik ten Hag’s squad, he now joins Burnley, who are looking to make an instant return to the Premier League under new manager Scott Parker, following their relegation last term. We wish you the best of luck with your next steps, Hannibal!”
