Abdoul Abonsso: Left winger linked with move to Slovak side Banik Kalinovo

Abdoul Abonsso has completed a move to Slovak club Banik Kalinovo on a free transfer from his previous status as a free agent. The 25‑year‑old left winger, who holds nationality for both the United States and Togo, joins the club after several months without a team, with his contract at Banik Kalinovo commencing on 2026-03-04. No transfer fee was involved, and the deal was concluded after he left Redfox Stara Lubovna earlier in the same season.

The switch marks the latest step in a career that has already taken Abonsso across several European countries. Before signing for Banik Kalinovo, he had been released by Slovak side Redfox Stara Lubovna at the start of 2026, which left him without a club. Prior to his spell there, he played in Austria for Union Mondsee and TSV St. Johann, and in Sweden for Råtorps IK. This move therefore keeps him abroad, continuing his trajectory in European lower‑tier football rather than returning to his home nations, the United States or Togo.

Banik Kalinovo have taken advantage of his free‑agent status to reinforce their attack with a naturally left‑footed winger who is listed at 1.83m and primarily operates on the left side of the front line. Abonsso’s main position is given as attack – left winger, and there is no indication from the data that he has been regularly deployed in any other role. The transfer has been registered for the 2025/26 season, and his contract with Banik Kalinovo is currently set to run until 2026-06-30.

Market value data underline how his situation has fluctuated over recent months. While at Redfox Stara Lubovna during the 2025/26 campaign, his estimated market value rose from €10,000 in September 2025 to €25,000 in December 2025. Upon his arrival at Banik Kalinovo, however, his listed value is recorded as €0 on 2026-03-04, reflecting his arrival as a free signing after a spell without a club. The current data does not provide an updated valuation beyond that registration date.

Abonsso was born on 19 June 2000 in Kara and is officially recorded as 25 years old at the time of this transfer. His dual nationality status (United States and Togo) makes him eligible to attract attention from multiple fan bases and federations, though there is no national‑team data provided for him in the current profile. The entry under “national_team” showing Banik Kalinovo appears to be a club‑related notation rather than an international cap record.

The winger’s recent club history highlights a pattern of short spells and frequent moves. After leaving Råtorps IK in Sweden at the end of 2022, he joined TSV St. Johann in Austria later that season before becoming unattached in April 2023. He then signed for Union Mondsee in July 2023, departed again to become a free agent in mid‑2024, and subsequently landed in Slovakia with Redfox Stara Lubovna in July 2025. His exit from Redfox at the start of 2026 once more left him without an employer until Banik Kalinovo stepped in.

No detailed match statistics, appearances, goals, or assists are contained in the data set, and there are no specific individual performance records or notable fixtures referenced. As a result, there is no verifiable information on his recent match‑by‑match impact or season‑long contribution beyond the market‑value trend and the sequence of transfers.

Abonsso’s contract with Banik Kalinovo is scheduled to run until 2026-06-30, at which point he could again become a free agent if no extension or subsequent move is agreed. That contractual horizon leaves open the possibility of another change of club in the near future, particularly if he uses this spell to rebuild his value after arriving with a nominal valuation of zero. For now, his confirmed move to Banik Kalinovo secures his immediate future in Slovak football and extends his experience abroad away from his home countries.
