Career[]

Sibbick began his career with AFC Wimbledon and made his professional debut on 17 April 2017 in a 0–0 draw against Peterborough United.[4] Sibbick can operate in mainly defensive positions but has the footballing ability to play further forward if needed.

On 4 August 2020, Sibbick joined Belgian First Division A side Oostende on a season-long loan deal,[9] which was eventually terminated early in December 2020 as Sibbick had difficulties manifesting himself due to the good performance of other (young) defenders.[10][11]

He scored his first goal for Barnsley in a 1-1 draw with Cardiff City on 7 August 2021.[12]

Style of play[]

Sibbick is well known for his versatility, work-rate, and fitness levels, in mainly defending but also the attacking sense. He is described as, "So comfortable on the ball. As he can also get up and down the pitch brilliantly." and "Tall, athletic and has the ability to easily beat his man and find a teammate."[13]
