Arnold Abelinti (born 9 September 1991) is a French Guianan professional footballer who plays as a forward for French amateur side Saran and the French Guiana national team.
Starting his career at Loiret-based side USM Olivet, Abelinti was spotted by then-Championnat National side US Orléans, and spent two seasons with the club's 'B' team, scoring an impressive 16 goals from 30 appearances.[1]
He left in 2013, feeling betrayed by the Orléans club[1] and moved to CFA 2 side Saint-Pryvé Saint-Hilaire. He had two spells there, scoring a total of 29 goals in 48 games, with a year at Limoges FC between them.
He returned to the CFA in 2016, signing with JA Drancy in July.[2][3]
On 19 June 2019, Abelinti joined SO Romorantin.[4]
International career
Abelinti made his debut in June 2016, scoring the second of a 3–0 win against Bermuda.[5] In his second game, against St. Kitts & Nevis, he scored the game's only goal.[6]
