Aybar Abdulla

Aybar Abdulla came through the Kairat Almaty academy and made his first senior appearances in 2020, the season Kairat won the Kazakhstan Premier League title, though his own part in that campaign was limited to the club's youth and reserve sides. A left-footed forward who has also been used as an attacking midfielder, he spent a year out on loan in Russia with Kairat Moscow, scoring three goals in 17 matches in the second-tier FNL 2 during 2021–2022.

In April 2023 he moved to Shakhter Karagandy for a reported €10,000. Over two seasons there he made 30 league appearances and scored twice, including the opener in a 1-1 draw against Kyzylzhar Petropavlovsk in October 2024. He has also featured for Kazakhstan's under-21 side, scoring three goals in nine caps, among them one against Scotland in Euro 2025 qualifying.

February 2025 brought another move, to Aktobe for €20,000, but he managed only seven appearances there before being sent out on loan to Turan Turkistan that July. Neither spell produced a league goal, and he returned to Aktobe in December 2025 without having found the net. A fresh start followed in February 2026, when Abdulla joined Atyrau on a free transfer. The goal has come more readily there: from eight appearances he already has one to his name.
