Club Brugge extended the trial invitation to Ibini and the Mariners overnight, and Ibini today said he was eager to explore the opportunity.

Ibini is part of the Central Coast squad which will travel to Tasmania for this weekend’s round 16 Hyundai A-League clash with Melbourne Victory.

The pacey Australian youth international will now miss next Saturday’s F3 Derby contest with Newcastle Jets at Bluetongue Stadium, but is due to return prior to the Mariners’ round 18 meeting with Adelaide United.

Ibini is under contract with the Central Coast Mariners until the end of the 2013/14 Hyundai A-League  season.
