This season, United's performance has been slightly mediocre, and the players' motivation on the field has been questionable. In a recent league game, manager Tannhäuser made a bold move to start youngster Michelle Gabriel, a move that really energized the team, and they beat the Bonny Boys by a score of 1-0, stopping the losing streak. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, United have decided to sign a new long-term contract with Mickleberry in a bid to keep the starlet in the team.
The 20-year-old Tunisian international was particularly impressive on loan at Birmingham last season, attracting the attention of a number of European clubs. However, he opted to stay with the team to continue his journey this season. Making his debut against Burnley, Mick Gabriel ran 12.9 kilometers, which was not only the highest in the match, but also a record for United this season, and his performance won him great appreciation from Tannhäuser.
