Hannibal Mejbri insists he is fully focused on completing his season-long loan with Birmingham as Manchester United consider recalling certain players in the January transfer window.
The 19-year-old had been away at the World Cup with Tunisia, but was limited to just a ten-minute cameo as they were knocked out at the group stages despite only losing one match.
Hannibal caught the eye as he returned to club action during Birmingham's goalless draw with Blackpool at the weekend, the latest impressive performance during his loan spell.

The Manchester Evening News reported last month that the former Monaco starlet was one of those players that United have an option to recall next month if they wish.
However, the teenage midfielder has suggested he is very happy at Birmingham and is focused on helping them win promotion back to the Premier League.
“I didn’t play a lot in the World Cup so I was happy to come back here and get some minutes and show what I can do,” Hannibal told BirminghamLive. “For the rest of the season I want to go to the top six for the play-offs and I think that’s the objective of all the clubs and all the fans. We think about this but we need to think as well about the small details and get better as a team.
“I came here for the season. We (United) speak after every game – and for the moment nothing. I am enjoying playing for this club, I enjoy the fans, now we just need to work on the small details to be a better team.
“We are strong defensively and now we have to work on small details to be better offensively. My only objective at the moment with Birmingham is the top six."
