Real Oviedo midfielder, Kwasi Sibo
Ghana coach Otto Addo was left impressed with the performance of Real Oviedo midfielder Kwasi Sibo following his debut for the Black Stars.
The 27-year-old partnered Thomas Partey in the heart of midfield to inspire the senior national team to an important victory over Mali in the World Cup qualifiers.
Sibo received a late invite to the team following the suspension of Elisha Owusu and the injury to Ibrahim Sulemana.
“First of all, big congrats to him. I think, he really did well,” said Addo after the game. “It is not easy to come from a certain environment to fit in the squad, but he knows a lot of players in the team, and he connected very well.
“He is very confident, and I think he did extremely well when you see this is his first performance.
“He is a warrior. Throughout you could see and I think for the future things well even get better but like for all players his performance for the club will decide for his next call up. The next window is pretty close, and I am sure he will be in the squad.”
The Spain-based midfielder is enjoying a decent start to his career in La Liga, having helped Oviedo secure promotion to the topflight last season.
