Career

Club

Between the ages of eight and eleven, Ibrahim was a member of the academy of Queens Park Rangers. Ibrahim advanced through the youth levels of Dartford beginning in 2001 before making his debut on 13 March 2008. In 2010, he signed a three-month loan contract with Maltese club St. Andrews. He has also had loan spells with Sittingbourne, Margate, Maidstone United, Leatherhead, and Phoenix Sports. He made a total of eight appearances for Margate. In 2014, he signed a short-term loan with Tonbridge Angels. At the age of 24 in 2015, Ibrahim was named Dartford's first-choice goalkeeper after making 37 appearances for the club since his league debut in 2008. Ibrahim scored his first goal for Dartford on 27 August 2016 with a free kick from his own half against Hungerford Town and his second against Chippenham Town on 13 October 2018 again from a free kick in his own half.

In October 2018, Ibrahim departed Dartford to take up an academy goalkeeping coach role at Charlton Athletic.

In March 2019, Ibrahim played one FA Vase game for Cray Valley PM.

On 30 March 2019, Ibrahim joined Tonbridge Angels until the end of the 2018–19 season. However, he returned to Cray Valley PM in May 2019 to sit on the bench in the 2019 FA Vase Final.
