Almir Izmailovich Kayumov (Russian: Альмир Измайлович Каюмов; 30 December 1964 – 7 August 2013) was a Russian football player and referee.
Kayumov played for FC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk, FC Lada Togliatti, Spartak Moscow, Rotor Volgograd, SKA Rostov-on-Don, in Russia, the Daewoo Royals in South Korea, and Kuopion Palloseura in Finland. He played 6 games in the UEFA Cup 1986–87 for FC Spartak Moscow.
On November 9, 2009, it was reported that Kayumov attempted to commit suicide by jumping out of his apartment window. Police negotiators talked him down, however, and he was brought to a psychiatric hospital. Kayumov later denied this, stating that he had just an ordinary treatment.
Kayumov died on 7 August, 2013, when he was hit by a GAZelle truck in Smolensk. According to investigators, his death was suicide as the surveillance camera footage showed that he jumped in front of the truck.
