Real Oviedo midfielder Kwasi Sibo has admitted that his path to a Ghana debut was paved by the misfortune of others, as injuries and suspension created a crucial opportunity he was ready to seize.
The 26-year-old earned his first cap for the Black Stars in a vital 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mali, stepping into the starting lineup after Elisha Owusu's suspension and a last-minute injury to Ibrahim Sulemana.
Sibo, who has become a key figure for Oviedo in La Liga, partnered Thomas Partey in midfield and helped Ghana secure a narrow 1-0 victory.
His performance demonstrated a readiness for the international stage that may have gone unnoticed without the unexpected opening in the squad.
"Everything happens for a reason, and I believe I have the power to change situations," Sibo stated, reflecting on his rapid rise from club football to the national team.
The midfielder's breakthrough highlights the importance of preparation and patience, as his consistent form in Spain made him the natural choice when the coaching staff needed a reliable replacement.
Sibo's successful debut not only contributed to a critical win but also announced the arrival of a new option in Ghana's midfield for the future.
