Sibo, 28 years old, joins the club as a free agent following his departure from Spanish side Real Oviedo at the end of the 2025/26 season. The move comes after Turkish Süper Lig side Gençlerbirliği's transfer collapse at a late stage of negotiations. This acquisition is viewed as a strong statement by Al-Swehly in their pursuit of success, both domestically and in continental competitions.
