Boubacar Fall (born 3 February 2001) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Ligue 1 club Saint-Étienne.

Club career

Having begun his career at Guédiawaye in his native Senegal, Fall joined French club Saint-Étienne on a professional deal on 5 January 2021, following the termination of Stéphane Ruffier's contract at the club. Seven months later on 5 August, Fall extended his contract with Saint-Étienne until June 2025. On 30 December 2022, he made his professional debut for the club in a 1–1 Ligue 2 draw against Caen. In March 2023, Fall suffered a meniscus injury for which he had to undergo surgery; Saint-Étienne announced that he would be expected to spend six months on the sidelines.

International career

With the Senegal U20s, Fall was designated as the best goalkeeper in the 2019 WAFU U-20 Tournament, a competition won by Senegal. He went on to win the 2020 Arab Cup U-20 with the same team.
