Career
Born in Bamako, Fomba joined Málaga CF's youth setup in the 2019 summer, from hometown side Derby Académie.[2] In August 2020, after scoring 25 goals for the Juvenil A squad, he was included in the pre-season with the main squad.[3]
On 13 September 2020, before even having appeared with the reserves, Fomba made his professional debut by coming on as a second-half substitute for Yanis Rahmani in a 2–0 loss at CD Tenerife in the Segunda División championship.[4] He subsequently featured more regularly for the B-team, scoring his first senior goal on 20 December, in a 2–2 Tercera División away draw against Alhaurín de la Torre CF.
On 31 January 2023, Fomba's agency announced that he would not renew his contract with Málaga, which was due to expire in June.[5]
In July 2023, Fomba joined Leganés, joining up with the club's reserve side for the 2023–24 season.[6] In January 2024, he joined Czech National Football League club MFK Vyškov on loan until the end of the season.[7]
