Tahith Chong praises Manchester United's Hannibal Mejbri but warns him about Birmingham loan

Tahith Chong has warned Manchester United's Hannibal Mejbri that it will take time to adapt to the difficulty of the Championship.

Chong spent last season on loan at Birmingham and he permanently signed for the club in September. United have a good working relationship with Birmingham and Hannibal was subsequently loaned to St. Andrew's where he'll play with Chong.

Hannibal, 19, has always been highly regarded in United's academy and he was involved with the first-team last season, but Erik ten Hag decided that a loan was best for his development this term, in an attempt to give him consistent first-team minutes.
