Soumaïla Ouattara (born 4 July 1995) is a Burkinabè professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for the Burkina Faso national team. He has been described as a player who is comfortable with using both of his feet.[1]
Ouattara began his career at ASF Bobo Dioulasso in 2014 in Burkina Faso. In 2015, he signed for Ivorian club SOA before returning to Burkina Faso with Rahimo a year later. In 2017, he moved to Ajax Cape Town. Over the course of one season at the club, he played a total of two matches.[2] His debut match was a 2–1 loss to Maritzburg United on 5 January 2018, and his final match was a 1–0 loss to Cape Town City fifteen days later. At the end of the 2017–18 campaign, Ajax suffered relegation after being sanctioned for fielding an ineligible player.[3] In the summer of 2018, Ouattara returned to his former club of Rahimo.
On 5 February 2021, Ouattara signed for Moroccan club Raja Casablanca on a contract lasting until 2024.[4] The transfer fee was reportedly worth 16 million CFA francs.[5] His debut came in a 1–0 loss to Hassania Agadir on 7 April 2021.[6]
On 29 August 2021, Ouattara signed for fellow Moroccan club FUS Rabat.[7]
Ouattara made his debut for Burkina Faso in a 1–0 friendly victory over Libya on 4 September 2019. His first competitive match was a 1–0 loss to Mali in the African Nations Championship on 16 January 2021.
