The sources do not demonstate that Abitov has ever played in a game that would cause him to pass football notability. Clearly none of the teams he has played with are in fully pro leagues. The article does not have sources to demonstrate that any games he played with the Kyrgystan National Team are at a level to make him notable.John Pack Lambert (talk)02:30, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
