Career
Ibrahim, a Togolese youth international, has been watched by several top European clubs, including Manchester United. Unable to sign in Europe because of visa problems, he signed with the MetroStars in early 2005 after impressing in the pre-season. He was the first Togolese player in Major League Soccer.[1] While showing flashes of top speed, Abbe scored two goals and added three assists in his rookie year. His rights were traded to Toronto FC[2] on 25 January 2007, and in April 2007, he signed a senior contract with the expansion club.[3]
Toronto FC waived Ibrahim in late June 2007 to make space for the signing of Collin Samuel. In February 2008, signed a three-year contract with FC Kharkiv in Ukraine.[4] Ibrahim played two games for New York Greek American in September 2009.[5] In 2011, he moved to Dynamic Togolais.[citation needed]
