Ofufu Ibeh: Nigerian-Portuguese winger joins Svay Rieng on free transfer

Nigerian-Portuguese winger Ofufu Ibeh has joined Cambodian club Svay Rieng, bringing a new chapter to the 28-year-old left-sided attacker’s career.

Ibeh arrives from Tunisia’s Olympique Beja on a free transfer. The move was completed on 8 September 2026 and takes the player from Ligue 1 to Cambodia’s C. Premier League.

The transfer gives Svay Rieng an experienced option on the left wing, with Ibeh’s primary position listed as a wide attacking role. His arrival adds a player with a dual Nigerian and Portuguese nationality profile to the club’s squad as they compete in Cambodia’s top division.

Ibeh’s previous club, Olympique Beja, competes in Tunisia’s Ligue 1. His departure marks a change of footballing environment after his time in North Africa, with the player now moving to south-east Asia for the next stage of his career.

The switch is notable for the distance between the two leagues involved. Svay Rieng’s C. Premier League provides the setting for Ibeh’s next chapter, while Olympique Beja represents the most recent stop in a career that has now taken him between African and Asian football.

At 28, Ibeh moves at an age when his experience can be used immediately. His role as a left winger gives Svay Rieng an attacking player who operates from the flank, although no further tactical or statistical details have been provided alongside the transfer.

The move also places Ibeh in a new national football system after his time in Tunisia. He joins a Cambodian club from a side based in Tunisia, making the transfer a clear change in both league and continent.

Svay Rieng have therefore secured the services of Ibeh without a transfer fee, while Olympique Beja lose a player who had been part of their squad before the move. The deal was completed on 8 September, with the transfer now established as part of Svay Rieng’s squad for the C. Premier League.

Ibeh has completed his free transfer from Olympique Beja to Svay Rieng.
