Club career

Youth career

Swibel started playing football in 2011, by joining Hakoah Sydney City East, where he came through the youth ranks and became the top goalscorer of the under-18 squad during the 2016 season, helping his side win the league. During the same year, he made his first-team debut for Hakoah in the FFA Cup. [1] [2]

In the summer of 2017, Swibel went on trial for Maccabi Tel Aviv after being scouted in a youth tournament in Israel. [3]

Sydney FC

In 2018, Swibel joined the youth academy of Sydney FC.[ citation needed] He was part of the Sydney team that won the 2019–20 Y-League, having scored the opening goal in a 5–1 win over Melbourne Victory in the Grand Final. [4] [5] In March 2019, Swibel was included in Sydney's first-team squad for the group stage of the AFC Champions League. [6]

On 4 January 2020, Swibel made his professional debut for Sydney's first team, coming on for Kosta Barbarouses in the 87th minute of a 2–1 league win over Adelaide United. [7] On 25 November 2020, he made his AFC Champions League debut, coming on for Paulo Retre in the 83rd minute of a 1–0 loss to Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in the group stage. [8] [9]

In January 2021, Swibel signed a one-year scholarship deal with Sydney FC, [10] but was eventually released by the club in July of the same year. [11] He made a total amount of 13 appearances in all competitions for the team. [12]

Western Sydney Wanderers

On 28 October 2021, Swibel signed a one-year scholarship deal with fellow A-League Men club Western Sydney Wanderers, following a successful trial. [13] While having limited playing time within the first team, he mainly featured for their NPL team; having scored nine goals in eight league matches, he helped the club gain promotion to NPL 1. [12] He left the club in July 2022, following the expiration of his deal. [14]

Hapoel Nof HaGalil

After going on trial for Israeli Premier League club Ashdod, whom he was recommended to by former WSW team-mate Tomer Hemed, [15] [16] on 1 August 2022 Swibel signed a one-year contract with Liga Leumit side Hapoel Nof HaGalil. [17] Thanks to his Jewish heritage, he did not count towards the foreign player quotas required in Israeli leagues. [15] [17] On 22 September, he scored his first goal for the club, netting the winner in a 2–1 league victory over Hapoel Rishon LeZion. [18]

Marconi Stallions

On 12 December 2022, Swibel returned to Australia, joining National Premier Leagues NSW side Marconi Stallions.[ citation needed] He was the club's top scorer for the 2023 league campaign, having scored 15 goals in 28 matches. [12] [19]
