Born in Mombasa, Aboud Omar began his career at local side Admiral in the second tier of Kenyan football. In early 2011, he was loaned to Kenyan Premier League club Bandari. [2]

In June 2013, Omar joined Kenyan Premier League defending Champions Tusker where he won 2013 Kenyan Super Cup (post-season). [3]

After two years at Tusker, Omar signed with Greek club Panegialios in August 2015. [4] He made his debut in a 0–0 home draw against Acharnaikos on 27 September. Omar played half of the season, appearing 15 times in the league.

On 9 February 2016, Omar signed a contract with Bulgarian side Slavia Sofia, after a successful trial period with the club. [5] He made his competitive debut against Botev Plovdiv on 3 March, playing the full 90 minutes. [6] As a result, he became the first Kenyan footballer to play in the Bulgarian top league.
