Playing career

In March 2007 Bayal Sall signed a contract with IK Start. But three months later, having never played a game for the club, he signed for AS Saint-Étienne.

In January 2012 Bayal Sall went on a six-month loan to AS Nancy-Lorraine.^[2] He was put aside by the management in Saint-Étienne, according to him because of personal problems with manager Christophe Galtier, and therefore not playing anymore.^[3]

He agreed the termination of his contract with Royal Antwerp of the Belgian First Division A in April 2018.^[5]

A free agent since leaving Antwerp, Bayall Sall returned to France joining Championnat National side AS Lyon-Duchère in July 2019.^[5]
