Camara began his career with his hometown club, Olympique Noisy-le-Sec, appearing in 67 matches and scoring 1 goal. He signed his first full professional contract with Olympique de Marseille in 2006; however, after a few months with the Provence club, he was unable to overtake incumbent starter Habib Beye and in search of playing time, he signed a three-year contract with Ligue 2 club SC Bastia, playing primarily as a rightback or centerback. He had his most productive season during the 2008–09 Ligue 2 season with 26 appearances and three goals. He scored his first goal as a professional on 22 February 2008, against Libourne Saint-Seurin. The following season, he fell out of favor with the club and terminated his contract with Bastia on 18 January 2010.
On 7 February 2011, Camara signed with the Montreal Impact of the North American Soccer League.[1] In his first season with Montreal Camara appeared in 22 league matches and scored 2 goals as he was named the club's most valuable player.[2] After a successful first season with Montreal, in which he was regarded as one of the top players in the North American Soccer League, Camara re-signed with Montreal Impact on 11 October 2011 for the club's inaugural 2012 season in Major League Soccer.[3] On 29 May 2013 he scored the cup-winning goal for the Montreal Impact in the Canadian Championship final against the Vancouver Whitecaps; this goal allowed the Montreal Impact to qualify for the CONCACAF Champions League for the second time in the team's history.[citation needed]
On 11 June 2014, he played his hundredth match all competitions for the Montreal Impact against D.C. United.[4]
Camara was released by Montreal on 16 November 2017.[5] He announced his retirement from professional soccer on 12 December 2017, citing an accumulation of injuries.[6]
