Soumaïla Ouattara (born 4 July 1995) is a Burkinabé professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for the Burkina Faso national team. He has been described as a player who is equally comfortable with both of his feet.

Club career

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. 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. 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. The transfer fee was reportedly worth 16 million CFA francs. His debut came in a 1–0 loss to Hassania Agadir on 7 April 2021.

On 29 August 2021, Ouattara signed for fellow Moroccan club FUS Rabat.

International career

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.
