Rassambek Akhmatov (born 31 May 1996) is a Chechen-born-French footballer who’s playing for COMUNA RECEA in the LIGA 2 Romania.
Rassambek has arrived in France in 2003, with his family after escaping from the war in Chechnya. He moved to Haguenau in 2005 and discovered a passion for football at age of 10, at the city stadium in small district in Haguenau before signing his first contract at 11 years of age at FR Haguenau. He would subsequently play in several Alsacian clubs, before joining FCSR Obernai with the senior team. Then with determination he tried his luck during scouting which was organized in Paris by an American team, and out of the 800 players, he was one of the 10 selected to spend 2 weeks of testing in Miami. He finally joined the FC Miami City team which at the time played in the American third division. After two seasons in Miami, he was noticed by Swope Park Rangers (second division), where he signed a first professional contract in the summer of 2018.
After two full seasons in Kansas City, he returned back to France. During the pandemic, he spent several months without a club, before signing for Comuna Recea in the Romanian second division.
