Mahmoud Mohamed Siblini (Arabic: محمود محمد سبليني; born 15 July 1993) is a Lebanese footballer who plays as a forward for Lebanese Premier League club Nejmeh.[2]
Starting his career at Ahli Saida in 2011, Siblini moved to Nejmeh in 2014 before being sent on a season-long loan to Tadamon Sour in 2017.
Having already represented Lebanon internationally at youth level, Siblini debuted for the senior team in 2014.
Club career[]
Siblini started his club career at his hometown club Ahli Saida during the 2011–12 Lebanese Premier League, playing 18 games and scoring one goal.[3] Despite finishing in last place and being relegated to the Lebanese Second Division, Siblini remained at the club for two further seasons.[3]
On 13 August 2014, Siblini moved to Nejmeh,[4] scoring one league goal in eight games, and winning the Lebanese Elite Cup and Lebanese Super Cup.[3] The following season, in 2015–16, Siblini scored four league goals in 17 games, and helped his side win the Lebanese FA Cup.[3] On 9 April 2016, Siblini sustained an ACL injury, ruling him out for the majority of the 2016–17 season.[5]
In August 2017, he was sent on a season-long loan to Tadamon Sour,[6] where he scored one goal in 17 games.[3] Upon his return to Nejmeh, Siblini went through another ACL injury on 23 May 2018, in a 2018–19 Arab Club Champions Cup match against Tunisian club Club Africain.[7] He recovered over seven months later, in January 2019.[7]
International career[]
A youth international for Lebanon at under-19 and under-23 levels,[4] Siblini made his senior debut on 14 October 2014 in a 1–1 friendly draw against Saudi Arabia.[3] He scored his first goal on his second game for Lebanon, on 6 November 2014, in a 3–2 defeat to the United Arab Emirates.[3]
