Club Career

Camara trained as a youth with Le Havre AC, making appearances with their B team and training with the professional group. On leaving Le Havre he joined La Vitreenne FC in the fifth tier at the start of the 2012–13 season, but after issues over pay and a groin injury he left in November 2013 and returned to his home to train alone.

In the summer of 2013, Camara signed for fourth-level FC Chartres. In the 2014–15 season he played with ESM Gonfreville, enjoying a "quality season", which saw him attract the attention of US Orleans, for whom he signed in July 2015.

Camara signed his first professional contract with Orleans in the summer of 2016, before being loaned out to CA Bastia for the 2016–17 season.

Following the clubs promotion, Camara made his debut at the professional level for Orleans in a 3–1 Ligue 2 win over AS Nancy on 28 July 2017. In January 2018 he joined Lyon Duchere on loan until the end of the season.

On 21 August 2018, Greek club Panionios officially announced the signing of Camara, until the end of 2018-19 season.

Released by Panionis in the summer of 2020, Camara was without a club until a successful trial with FC Sete 34 resulted in a contract.
