Career

Abousaban started his career at the youth teams of Hajer. On 4 July 2007, Abousaban joined Al-Ittihad. He was promoted to the first team in 2010 and made his debut in the league match against Al-Shabab on 11 May 2011.^[3] During the 2011–12 season, Abousaban started to be included into the squad more often and eventually became a first-team player. On 29 January 2012, Abousaban was fined SAR10,000 and suspended for 4 matches for stepping on Nawaf Al Abed during the Crown Prince Cup semi-finals against Al-Hilal.^[4] On 10 April 2012, he was once again suspended for two matches for attacking a player during the league match against Al-Nassr.^[5] On 7 May 2012, Abousaban signed a contract extension with Al-Ittihad keeping him at the club until 2017.^[6]

On 22 June 2016, Abousaban left Al-Ittihad and signed a 2-year contract with Al-Fateh.^[7] He made 11 appearances for the club and left mid-season. On 31 January 2017, Abousaban joined Al-Taawoun on a six-month loan.^[8] On 19 July 2017, Abousaban signed a 2-year contract with Al-Faisaly.^[9] He made his debut for Al-Faisaly on 17 August 2017 in the league match against Al-Raed. He also scored his goal for the club during the same match which ended in a 3–2 win for Al-Faisaly. He ended his first season with Al-Faisaly making 28 appearances and scoring 6 goals. His impressive performances earned him a call-up to the Saudi national team for the friendly against Iraq.^[10] However, his second season at the club was more disappointing as Abousaban suffered from injuries.^[11] He made only 12 appearances in his second season with Al-Faisaly. Following the expiry of his contract, Abousaban joined newly-promoted side Damac.^[12] He made 13 appearances in all competitions for the club and scored twice in the league. On 25 January 2020, Abousaban rejoined Al-Taawoun but this time on a permanent basis.^[13] He signed a 2 and a half years contract with the club. On 30 January 2022, Abousaban joined Al-Fayha.^[14] On 7 September 2023, Abousaban joined Al-Hazem on a one-year deal.^[15]
