Abbasbek Fayzullaev: "My goal is to play for a top club in Europe!"

One of the brightest stars in Uzbek football in recent years, Abbasbek Fayzullaev has managed to firmly establish himself not only on the domestic but also on the international football field this past season. The 21-year-old forward, who currently plays for the Russian club CSKA, has not only achieved success with his team, but has also been recognized as the best young player in Asia.

During the season, Fayzullaev won the bronze medal of the Russian Championship and triumphed in the Russian Cup. In addition, he achieved a historic result with the Uzbekistan national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifying round, leading the country to the World Cup for the first time.

In an interview with journalist Nobel Arustamyan, Abbasbek answered with characteristic humility: — I made my parents happy, they sincerely felt this achievement. But I still want to achieve a lot. Playing for clubs like Real Madrid or Barcelona is my dream and goal.

Noting that players like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are a source of inspiration for him, Abbasbek also mentioned that he has been noticed by scouts from the German club Bayern Munich.

“I have a contract with CSKA, but my goal has always been clear - to get to Europe. It is a place that every player dreams of - I want to play there too,” he said.

Abbasbek’s dreams are not accidental. He has already demonstrated his potential for CSKA - with 8 goals and 22 assists in 71 matches, he has become an important figure in the team. These figures prove that the Uzbek legionnaire is in the spotlight of serious European clubs.

His career began at the Pakhtakor academy. In 41 matches for the team, he left the field with 10 goals and 3 assists. The player, who joined CSKA in August 2023, quickly gained the attention of Russian fans.

Fayzullaev has also managed to establish himself in the national team. He scored 8 goals in 27 matches and played an important role in Uzbekistan's qualification for the World Cup. His experience in major competitions and his work on himself make him a candidate for top clubs in the future.

Abbasbek Fayzullaev is an example for the younger generation not only with positive results, but also with his views, his constant desire to develop himself, and his big dreams. In every word he speaks, there is hard work, will, and a desire for continuous growth.

The young talent has many more goals ahead of him. Fans are eagerly waiting for his dreams to come true and for him to raise the Uzbek flag high in the largest arenas in Europe.
