Ismaël Keïta Vieira (born 8 July 1990) is a Malian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for French club Créteil.

Club career

Born in Bamako,

Arles-Avignon on 30 April 2010.[5]

At the end of his contract he left Nantes and signed a three-year contract with fellow Ligue 2 side Angers.[6] His league debut came on 2 August 2013 in a 2–4 away victory over Istres.[7]

Midway through the final year of his Angers contract, he agreed a termination deal with the club, and signed a six-month deal with

Gazişehir Gaziantep on 5 January 2017.[9]

In September 2017 Keïta returned to France, signing for Championnat National side Cholet.[10] After two seasons as a regular starter for Cholet, Keïta had an aborted transfer to Red Star in the summer of 2019, which disrupted the start to the 2019–20 season. At the end of the season he signed for Orléans on a one-year contract with an option to extend to a second year.[11][12]

On 13 July 2022, Keïta joined Créteil in the fourth tier.[13]

International career

Between 2010 and 2011, he won six caps for the Mali national team.[14]
