Career

Tabiner signed a scholarship deal with Crewe Alexandra's Academy in 2020. [2]

He made his Crewe debut on 9 November 2021 in an EFL Trophy group game against Wolves Under-21s at Gresty Road. [3]

On 4 February 2022, Tabiner joined Leek Town on a one-month youth loan deal, [4] making his debut the following day in their 2-0 home win against City of Liverpool F.C. [5] He signed his first professional deal with Crewe at the end of the 2021/22 season, [6] and early the following season made his first Crewe start on 9 August 2022, playing in an EFL League Cup first round defeat at Grimsby Town. [7] Tabiner started three consecutive league games in October 2022, but Crewe manager Alex Morris was being careful not to over-burden him: "He's not going to last games yet. He's an 18-year-old boy..., and we've got to make sure that we do not break him along the way." [8]

Tabiner scored his first Crewe goal in a 4-3 win over Salford City at Gresty Road on 10 March 2023. [9] On 15 September 2023, he signed a new contract keeping him at Crewe until 2026, with the option of a further year. [10] In October 2023, he incurred an ankle injury which required prolonged treatment; [11] he eventually returned to full training in mid-February 2024. [12]
