Ex-Man Utd star Hannibal Mejbri dubbed ‘epic s***house’ after outrageously taunting Leeds fans in tense Burnley win

HANNIBAL MEJBRI was dubbed an "epic s***house" for his outrageous taunting of Leeds fans.

The Tunisia star, 21, spent five years on the books at Manchester United.

He left Old Trafford for Burnley in a permanent transfer this summer, announced with a brilliant Oasis-themed video.

But that did not stop the ex-Red Devils man from causing more misery for his old rivals.

The midfielder started for the Clarets as they secured a crucial 1-0 win away at Elland Road.

And as he was subbed off in the 73rd minute, Hannibal made sure to give it large to the passionate home fans, deliberately winding them up.

A video filmed from the away end shows the youngster going full Jamie Vardy by goading the home supporters, pointing at them lapping up their hostility and then appearing to show the 1-0 scoreline with his fingers.

That sent the two sets of fans wild for very different reasons - prompting cheers from the Burnley followers and furious anger from the home fans behind the goal.

Hannibal - flanked by three members of staff ushering him towards the dugouts - then turned towards his Burnley faithful to applaud them.

And he rounded off the rustling by gearing up for a massive fist pump, prompting more cheers, before one final dig at the infuriated Leeds supporters.

One fan can be overheard in the video saying "what a f***ing legend" and the "class" behaviour went down a storm on social media, too.

The video was posted with the caption: "Hannibal is rent free in every Leeds fans' head."

Another wrote: "Absolutely love to see him giving it large to Leeds."

A bitter Leeds supporter sarcastically said: "Oh wow what an epic cool s***house!! Totally not just a p***k."

A third added: "He just gets it."

A fourth typed: "New Burnley legend incoming."

And a United fan responded: "Take care of him lads."

Plenty of other angry Leeds vented at Hannibal in the replies - while the Burnley fan insisted their new hero's antics continued all the way around the pitch.

On the field, Leeds dominated the stats with 72 per cent possession and 17 shots to Burnley's seven.

But it was Luca Koleosho's 18th-minute goal that proved the difference in front of Will Ferrell.

The Italian winger capitalised on Manor Solomon's slip and sprinted all the way from his own half before blasting in.
