Youssoupha Birima Fall (born January 12, 1995) is a Senegalese-French professional basketball player for FC Barcelona of the Liga ACB and the EuroLeague.
Fall attended the Seeds Academy in Thiès, Senegal,[1] before joining the youth ranks of French team Le Mans Sarthe Basket in 2012. He made his debut on Le Mans’ men's team during the 2014–15 season.[2] In 2015, he was named to the "Cinq All Star Espoirs", the all-first team of the French development league,[3] after averaging 12.6 points, 12.0 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per contest during the 2014-15 campaign.[4]
An early entry candidate for the 2016 NBA draft, he later withdrew his name from the list.[5] He was sent on loan to LNB Pro B side Poitiers Baskets 86 for the 2016–17 season.[6]
On July 17, 2018, he signed a four-year deal with Kirolbet Baskonia of the Spanish Liga ACB and the EuroLeague.[7] On August 9, 2018, Baskonia loaned him to SIG Strasbourg for the 2018–19 season.[8] On August 15, 2021, Fall officially parted ways with the Basque club. He signed with ASVEL Basket on loan one day later.[9]
On July 31, 2024, Fall was announced as a new FC Barcelona player, signing a one year deal with the Catalans.[10]
Fall was invited to play both for Senegal[11] and for France,[12] but has not been active in national team competition thus far. In September 2022, he expressed his will to represent Senegal's national team.[13]
