Club career

Stade Rennais

A very rangy defender, Bira Dembélé worked his way through the Stade Rennais' youth team. Pairing with Prince Oniangue to compose a highly efficient central defense with the Reserves, Bira Dembélé took profit of numerous injuries in the professional squad to play his first games in Ligue 1, in January 2008. His performances were good enough to convince the management to offer him a first three-year professional contract.[2]

In summer 2009, he was loaned to Boulogne, recently promoted to Ligue 1, to gather some professional experience. There, he made his place as a regular in the first team, scoring his first professional goal in the process.[3] Back to his training club in 2010, Dembélé was left on the sidelines by Frédéric Antonetti and played the whole 2010/2011 season with the Reserve. At the end of his contract in June 2011, he joined Sedan after being told that his contract will not be renewed.[4]

Sedan

Dembélé moved to Sedan but failed to make a first team his and his time there included a brief loan to Red Star.[5][6] However, in April, Dembele loan spell was cut short because of injury.[7]

Stevenage

Dembélé joined League One side Stevenage on 22 February 2014 on a free transfer.[8] Upon joining Stevenage, manager Graham Westley commented about Dembélé's talent, stating he "got a lot of quality; he's quick, very strong in the air and he can play the game."[9]

Dembélé made his debut for the club three days later, on 25 February 2014, where he made his first start in a 1–0 win over Crewe Alexandra.[10] After the match, Westley praised Dembele's debut, citing his pace and strong challenge.[11] His next appearance against Crawley Town on 4 March 2014, where he played at the right-back and scored his first goal from then header. The result went on to be a 1–1 draw.[12] Though he made thirteen appearance and scoring once, manager Westley revealed that Dembélé had signed a new contract with Stevenage.[13]

Barnet

In June 2015, Dembélé signed a two-year contract with League Two side, Barnet.[14]
