Abzal Beisebekov (Kazakh: Абзал Бейсебеков; born 30 November 1992) is a Kazakh football player, who plays for Astana in the Kazakhstan Premier League.

Career

Club career

Beisebekov began his career in 2008 with FC Kairat in Kazakhstan Premier League when he was 15 years old. Initially played as a forward, later he was frequently used as a defender due to Kazakhstan Premier League regulation for each team to have at least one player younger than 21 years old on field known as "limitchik". "Limitchik" players tend to be put in "less risky" positions such as side defenders and technically and physically skilled Beysebekov was used in such role for a few seasons, though, he could still play as a forward in Kazakhstan U-21 team. In February 2014 Beysebekov was loaned for 6 months to a Polish side Korona Kielce to join his compatriot Sergei Khizhnichenko.

International career

Beisebekov has played for all national youth teams of Kazakhstan in 2008-2013.
