Abdulai made his first team debut for Extremadura on 4 July 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for compatriot Emmanuel Lomotey in a 0–1 Segunda División away loss against CD Numancia. He scored his first professional goal sixteen days later, netting his team's only in a 1–5 loss at UD Las Palmas.

On 19 August 2020, Abdulai was loaned to Getafe CF, being initially assigned to the B-team in Segunda División B. He made his La Liga debut with the main squad the following 3 April, replacing Carles Aleñá late into a 0–0 draw at CA Osasuna.

After signing a permanent three-year contract with Geta in 2021, but suffered a serious knee injury in July of that year, being sidelined for eight months. On 8 August 2022, he was loaned to SD Ponferradina in the second division, for one year.
