Youth
Sabbi was born in Italy to Ghanaian parents. He grew up in the United States, however, and for the majority of his youth, he played for Ohio Premier Soccer Club in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio Premier became national finalists at the 2014 USYS National Championships in Maryland. Sabbi won the golden boot and was named most valuable player of the tournament.

In June 2020, Sabbi agreed to a free transfer with Odense Boldklub at the end of the season.[5]
International
Sabbi was eligible to represent Ghana, Italy, and the United States.[6] He represented the United States at the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup, appearing in two games, cap-tying him to the United States.
