Hannibal Mejbri heading back to Birmingham City on loan again from Manchester United would be a good move for both the player and the Championship club.
That's the view of former England midfielder Carlton Palmer. The 20-year-old Tunisia international has spent the recently concluded regular season in the second tier of English football with the Blues on loan from United.
He became a regular for John Eustace's side during that time. Birmingham ended the campaign in 17th place, with Mejbri playing 41 times in all competitions and scoring once, a free-kick in the win over West Bromwich Albion which was voted the Championship club's goal of the season.

It remains to be seen where he will be playing his football in the 2023/24 campaign. But Palmer believes that after a 'decent' spell at St Andrew's, the Blues ought to try and secure the midfielder again on loan next season.
