On 14 September 2012, Soumah received a red card in a 3–1 home league loss to Spartak Trnava, alongside two other teammates. He was later fined €3,400 and banned from football for six months for making an obscene gesture towards fans, assaulting the opponent's players and threatening the referee during that match.
