Kwasi Sibo's proposed move to Genclerbirligi collapsed after the Turkish club signed Senegalese midfielder Cheikh Niasse on loan from Hellas Verona instead. The 28-year-old Ghana midfielder had reached a preliminary agreement with the Ankara-based side earlier this month but the development is now a setback for the player. Genclerbirligi opted to strengthen their midfield with Niasse, 26, who joined the Turkish club on loan from Italian side Hellas Verona with an option to make the move permanent at the end of the season. Niasse made 20 Serie A appearances for Verona last season. Sibo, who is currently a free agent following his departure from Spanish club Real Oviedo where he spent the previous two seasons, had reportedly made Genclerbirligi his preferred destination despite attracting more lucrative offers from elsewhere. The midfielder featured in all four matches for Ghana at the 2026 FIFA World Cup and remains a player of interest to clubs in England, France, Egypt and the Middle East. With the Genclerbirligi switch now looking increasingly unlikely, Sibo is expected to consider other options as he decides on his next club.
