Club career

In early March 2008, Camara signed a short-term deal with Dundee United of the Scottish Premier League,[2] but despite being listed as a substitute on several occasions did not make a first team appearance and was released at the end of the season.

In December 2008, he played a competitive trial match for East Stirlingshire, after manager Jim McInally had previously had him on trial at Greenock Morton.[3]

After leaving Ochilview Park, Camara moved to France to play with SO Cholet who won the sixth division (Division d'Honneur Atlantique) in France in the 2008–09 season.
