Abdoulaye (Abbe) Ibrahim (born July 25, 1986, in Lomé, Togo) is a football striker.

Career

Ibrahim, a Togolese youth international, has been watched by a number of top European clubs, including Manchester United. Unable to sign in Europe because of visa problems, he signed with the MetroStars in early 2005, after impressing in the pre-season. He was the first Togolese player in Major League Soccer. While showing flashes of top speed, Abbe scored two goals and added three assists in his rookie year. His rights were traded to Toronto FC on 25 January 2007, and in April 2007, he signed a senior contract with the expansion club.

Ibrahim was waived by Toronto FC in late June 2007 to make space for the signing of Collin Samuel. In February 2008, signed a three-year contract with FC Kharkiv in Ukraine. In 2011, he moved to Dynamic Togolais.
