Ghana midfielder Kwesi Sibo is making major headlines across the transfer market. The 28-year-old free agent has reportedly walked away from smaller $1 million offers to secure a massive $10 million deal in North Africa.

After his contract with Spanish side Real Oviedo ended, Sibo attracted wide interest from European and Gulf clubs. However, Libyan powerhouse Al-Swehly stepped in with an irresistible financial package.

The proposed contract spans two years and is worth $10 million total. That breakdown nets the Ghanaian star roughly $5 million per year, translating to over $96,000 every single week.

Sibo previously hinted at waiting for European options or top-tier league deals. When potential moves to Turkey fell through, Al-Swehly capitalized by putting mega-money on the table.

Negotiations have moved fast, with the midfielder traveling to Egypt to seal final details. Turning down $1 million offers for a life-changing $10 million package shows how competitive African club football has become.

This contract stands as one of the most lucrative transfers for a Ghanaian midfielder in recent times. Fans are eagerly waiting for official club announcements as Sibo prepares to start his new journey in Libya.
