Aliyev reached the podium at the Russian Senior Championships for the first time in December 2017 with third place and thus qualified for the first time for Europe - u. World Championships as well as for the Olympic Games . He ended his debut at the European Championships in Moscow by winning the silver medal. At his first Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang, he took a respectable seventh place. He impressed above all with a strong short program for Chatschaturjan's masquerade , in which he was sure to score a four-fold Lutz- triple toe loop combination as well as a four-fold toe loop and a three-fold Axel as individual jumps, which gave him a new personal best of 98.98 points brought in. In his world championship debut in Milan , he finished 7th.
In the 2018/2019 season he was unable to qualify for the European and World Championships, as he was only 5th in the national championships.
In the 2019/2020 season he won medals in the Grand Prix series for the first time , took part in the Grand Prix final and was also European champion in 2020.
