Representing the Ocean Stars in many international competitions and matches during the 1960s and 70s, Abdulle was seen as one of Somalia's most respected footballers of his time[1] and went on to coach the national team.
He died on 9 May 2017 aged 71 after a long illness in his Mogadishu home[1] and was interred afterwards.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino gave his commiserations in a letter to the Somali Football Federation two days after Abdulle's passing.[2]
