Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has reserved some special praise for 18-year-old Hannibal Mejbri who is expected to feature for Tunisia at the Africa Cup of Nations.
The midfielder played a starring role for Tunisia at the Arab Cup, where he made his six appearances which included a start in the final against Algeria.
Rangnick reveals will be part of the first team set up when he returns from the the Africa Cup of Nations next month.

"Hannibal was here training for the first time since I arrived having just come back from the Arab Cup," Rangnick told the club's official website.
"Unfortunately for us and for him, he will be missing out [with us] again in January because of the Africa Cup of Nations.
"I watched the final before his substitution and I’m fully aware that we have another good, highly-talented player coming from our youth ranks and hopefully after the Africa Cup of Nations he can regularly train and be part of our group."
