Early career
Born in Senegal's capital, Dakar, Ibrahim Ngom Ba was not yet eighteen when, in 1991, he started playing for the French club Le Havre AC, where he spent five years. In 1996, he moved to fellow Ligue 1 outfit Bordeaux, reaching the final of the Coupe de la Ligue and making his France national football team debut on 22 January 1997 against Portugal, scoring in a 2–0 victory.
Milan
In 1997, he transferred from FC Girondins de Bordeaux to Milan, and in 1999 won the Serie A title.
He was later loaned to AC Perugia, where he suffered a knee injury. He underwent another loan, with Olympique de Marseille, in 2001.
Later years
In 2003, he finally left Milan and joined Bolton Wanderers in England. He helped them reach the 2004 Football League Cup Final, playing in both legs of the semi-final victory over Aston Villa. However, he was left out of the match day squad as they lost the final to Middlesbrough. Ba made his last appearance for Bolton against Chelsea on 13 March 2004.
He failed to make an impression at Bolton, and moved on to Turkey after just one season, joining Çaykur Rizespor on a one-year deal on 24 August 2004.
On 6 February 2005, Ba was signed by Swedish side Djurgårdens IF on a two-year contract. Djurgården won the league in his first season. In early 2006, it was decided that his contract would be terminated and he subsequently left Djurgården in January of that year.
Return to Italy
At the start of 2007 Ba returned to Italy to train with Serie C2 team Varese to help with his fitness. In June 2007, after having travelled to Athens together with the A.C. Milan squad to attend the UEFA Champions League final in which they defeated English Premier League side Liverpool, Ba agreed a one-year contract with his former club. During the 2007–08 season, making only one appearance in the Coppa Italia as a substitute, he retired from the game. After the season Ba accepted a job as a scout for Milan in Africa.
Personal life
Ibrahim Ba is the son of 1970s Senegalese international footballer Ibrahima Ba (born 1951), who spent his late career in France, where he helped Le Havre AC to promotion in 1979 and finished his career at SC Abbeville. Ibrahima Ba's younger son, Fabien (born 22 October 1994) is also a footballer, playing in Italy with the Giovanissimi Nazionali of his brother Ibrahim's former club A.C. Milan.
