Career
Mohammed Al-Balushi is the first Omani player to play professionally in Africa when he was loaned in 2008 to Al-Ahly (Tripoli) of Libya. He then moved to Al-Arabi SC where he played for a full season and displayed a great performance with the club and with the Oman national football team. His solid defensive abilities plus the gift to score goals made him a target to a number of international clubs such as AJ Auxerre and some regional giants such as Al-Shabab (Saudi Arabia).
But on 22 July 2009, Al-Wasl FC of the UAE won the race and signed the gifted Omani footballer for a season long loan. Before the end of the season, "Al Shaiba" proved his worth, and accepted a four-year contract from Al-Wasl FC. On 29 December 2013, Sheiba signed for his first club Al-Nahda Club for a period of 6 months.
Gulf Cup of Nations
Mohammed has made appearances in the 2009 Gulf Cup of Nations, the 2010 Gulf Cup of Nations and has represented the national team in the 2013 Gulf Cup of Nations.
AFC Asian Cup Qualification
Mohammed has made appearances in the 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualification and the 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualification.
FIFA World Cup Qualification
Mohammed has made four appearances in the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification and eleven in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification.
In the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification, he scored one goal in the Fourth Round in a 1-1 draw against Iraq. Oman entered the last game of group play with a chance to qualify for at least the playoff-round, but a 1-0 loss to Jordan eliminated them from contention.
