Sevilla coach Quique Sanchez Flores is being won round by Hannibal Mejbri.
The Manchester United loanee was slammed over his attitude by Sanchez Flores last month.
But the coach now says: "The boy is reaching another level of understanding and is now capable of playing at any time. This has been a more mental adaption than a footballing one.
"Going from the Premier League to La Liga, which is very different. And moving to a team with a very difficult situation. From United, which was fighting among the top five, to Sevilla, which is among the bottom seven. It is very different.
"He had to be grounded, put (the challenge) into perspective and now it is the coach who has to play him."
