Saibari is considered a versatile offensive player who can be deployed as a number ten, on the left wing, or as a center forward. Over the past two seasons, he scored 34 goals and provided 23 assists in 81 competitive matches for Eindhoven. At the ongoing World Cup in North America, he has already scored three times and converted the decisive penalty in the round of 32 against the Netherlands to advance.
Coach Vincent Kompany gains another option in attack with Saibari. The right-footer can serve as an alternative to Harry Kane or provide more punch as a powerful number ten. Saibari himself was thrilled: “As a child, you dream of signing a contract with a club like FC Bayern – everyone knows it’s one of the biggest clubs in the world.”
The Moroccan also likes to provoke. Before the Champions League round of 16 against Arsenal in March 2025, PSV coach Peter Bosz dropped him from the squad due to repeated tardiness. At the Africa Cup of Nations last winter, Saibari caused a stir in the final against Senegal when he was involved in a towel incident. He later apologized publicly.
