Career

[edit]

Falkirk

[edit]

Biabi was born in London,[2] however moved to Scotland aged 12 and grew up in the Scotstoun area of Glasgow,[3] where he attended Knightswood Secondary School and was involved in a training programme for youths in the city's housing estates organised by former Scotland player Andy McLaren.[4] He signed for Falkirk as a 16-year-old from Junior side Clydebank.[5] He made his first team debut in a promotion play-off game against Queen of the South on 6 May 2014. In all he made 32 appearances for Falkirk, in all competitions.

Swansea City

[edit]

Biabi moved to Premier League club Swansea City on 17 August 2015 for a "six-figure fee",[6] where he joined up with their Under-21 squad.[3]

On 31 August 2017, Biabi signed for Scottish Premiership club Hamilton Academical on a four-month loan.[7]

On 31 January 2019, Biabi signed a one-year extension with Swansea City and joined Macclesfield Town on loan for the remainder of the 2018–19 season.[8]

He was released by the club in July 2019.[9]

Brechin City

[edit]

In October 2022, Biabi signed with Highland Football League side Brechin City until the end of the season.[10]

Kelty Hearts

[edit]

In summer 2021, Biabi signed for Kelty Hearts and, after a season with Brechin City, he returned to the club in July 2023 signing for a 2nd time.[11][12]

International career

[edit]

Because of parentage and birthplace, Biabi had a three-way choice to make between Ivory Coast, England and Scotland but elected to represent Scotland, the country of his upbringing.[13] He was called up to the Scotland under-19 side for matches in September 2014.[14]
