Abdullahi started his senior career with the four-time Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) champions in 2012.
The 31-year-old was on the books of the Sai Masu for two years before moving abroad.

“I’m happy to be here, Kano Pillars is our club, everyone is proud of it. It is always a dream to see us come back to where we started our journey,” Abdullahi told Kano Pillars media.
“Kano is a home to us, they always welcome us. They were always sending us messages when we were playing in Europe to come back to play. We are happy we’re here, and hopefully we’ll make them happy as well.”
