Azeem Abdulai

Azeem Abdulai of Hibernian was born in Glasgow, Scotland on 9 December 2002 (age 23).

Azeem Abdulai, born on 9 December 2002 (age 23), is a Scottish central midfielder now with Hibernian. His senior career has been shaped mainly at Swansea City, where he made 24 league appearances across two seasons.

His busiest Swansea campaign came in 2024–25, with 17 league appearances and one goal. That remains the main body of his first-team work so far, rather than a long trail of short stops elsewhere.

At Hibernian in 2026–27, Abdulai wears number 47 and has made four league appearances, along with three in Conference League qualifying. It is a modest career profile at this stage, built chiefly on that Swansea spell and now continuing in Edinburgh.
