Kwasi Sibo Joins Black Stars Squad for Mali Clash
Real Oviedo midfielder Kwasi Sibo has been handed a late call-up to the Black Stars ahead of their crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mali.
Sibo has been in fine form this season, featuring in all three of his club’s matches so far. His consistency has caught the eye of coach Otto Addo, who is currently facing challenges in midfield.

Injury and Suspension Updates
- Thomas Teye Partey: Fell ill before the Chad game.
- Ibrahim Sulemana: Sidelined after picking up a knee injury in the final training session in N’djamena.
- Elisha Owusu: Suspended for the Mali match due to accumulated yellow cards.
Sibo will join the national team camp in Accra as preparations continue for the big clash at the Accra Sports Stadium on Monday, September 8, 2025. His inclusion is expected to provide much-needed depth and stability in the Black Stars’ midfield.
