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.
Career
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.{{cite web|url=http://www.lamontagne.fr/limoges/sports/football/2014/10/03/arnold-abelinti-un-artisan-dans-lame_11167392.html |title=Arnold Abelinti, un artisan dans l'âme |date=3 October 2014 |accessdate=18 April 2017 |work=La Montagne |language=French}}
He left in 2013, feeling betrayed by the Orléans club 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.{{cite web|url=http://www.larep.fr/saint-pryve-saint-mesmin/sports/football/2016/07/16/les-hommes-de-baptiste-ridira-nouveau-coach-de-saint-pryve-reprennent-lentrainement-lundi_12003555.html |title=Les hommes de Baptiste Ridira, nouveau coach de Saint-Pryvé, reprennent l'entraînement lundi |date=16 July 2016 |accessdate=18 April 2017 |work=La Republique du Centre |language=French}}{{cite web |url=http://paris-idf.fff.fr/la-ligue/article/arnold-abelinti-ja-drancy |title=Arnold Abelinti (JA Drancy): J'ai Senti de la Sincerité dans le Discours du Club |date=8 August 2016 |accessdate=18 April 2017 |work=La Ligue Paris Ile-de-France |language=French |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170419101144/http://paris-idf.fff.fr/la-ligue/article/arnold-abelinti-ja-drancy |archive-date=19 April 2017 |url-status=dead }}
