Career

Ashanti Gold

Abdulai played for Obuasi-based club Ashanti Gold before moving to Karela United.[2] He featured in 6 league matches in the 2018 Ghanaian Premier League season before the league was abandoned due to the dissolution of the GFA in June 2018, as a result of the Anas Number 12 Expose.[3]

Karela United

In September 2018, he was signed by Western Region-based club Karela United by then coach Johnson Smith on an initial two-year contract.[2] He became a key member of the club, as he featured in 7 league matches before the league was put on hold and later cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] He featured in 10 league matches in the first round of the 2020–21 Ghana Premier League and helped them to a first round 1st place league position before joining Aduana Stars in March 2021.[4][5] He played a total of 26 league matches before leaving the club after his contract expired.[6][2]

Aduana Stars

In March 2021, when Abdulai's contract with the club expired he left Karela as a free agent after the first round of the season and signed a 2-year deal with Aduana Stars.[2][6] He was signed to replace the club's defender Farouk Adams who was in custody and standing trial for allegedly killing a Police officer with a car.[6]

Trepça

On August 21, 2023, Abdulai signed for the Kosovan club KF Trepça which competes in the First Football League of Kosovo.[7]
