Sibo began his career with Ghanaian side Cheetah FC before joining Armenian Premier League side Banants in September 2017. The following year, he signed for Premier League side Watford on a long-term deal.[1]

In January 2019, Sibo joined Albanian Superliga side Skënderbeu Korçë on loan until the end of the season.[2] The following season he spent some time training with Udinese before heading to Spain to join Ibiza on a season-long loan deal.[3]

On 12 August 2020, it was announced Sibo would remain on loan at the Spanish side for another season.[4] In August 2021, he signed permanently with Real Betis, being assigned to the reserves in Primera División RFEF.[5]

On 4 July 2024, Sibo joined Real Oviedo in the second division on a two-year deal.[7]

In August 2026, Sibo reached a preliminary agreement to join Turkish club Gençlerbirliği after leaving Real Oviedo as a free agent. The move would see him continue his career in the Turkish Süper Lig following two seasons in Spain.[8]
