Shaibu’s journey from guarding the net to leading the attack began due to FIFA’s transfer embargo on TP Mazembe, which prevented the club from signing new players.

Facing a shortage of attacking options, Shaibu proposed his services as a striker to the coaching staff.

Embracing this unconventional idea, the coaches handed him an outfield jersey at the next training session.

Despite initial skepticism from teammates and fans, Shaibu remained confident in his ability to adapt and excel in this new role.

Debut and Impact: A Star Emerges

Shaibu made his striking debut on October 26, 2024, coming off the bench in the 65th minute against Don Bosco.

His performance silenced critics and marked the beginning of a remarkable journey.

In a subsequent match against US Panda, he scored two goals in a 3-0 victory, earning the Man of the Match title.

He is also open to exploring opportunities in other leagues, particularly in North Africa and Europe, should his impressive form continue.

His adaptability and success story underscore the importance of versatility in football, inspiring many with his dedication and resilience.

Suleman Shaibu’s transformation from a goalkeeper to a prolific striker is a testament to his adaptability, skill, and determination, capturing the hearts of fans and the attention of the global football community.
