Boubacar Mansaly was born on 4 February 1988 in Guédiawaye, Senegal, starting to play junior level football in 2005 at ASC Yeggo.[1] In January 2006 he went to French side, Saint-Étienne where he would spent five seasons, playing mostly for the satellite team in the lower leagues.[1][2] Mansaly made his debut for the first team in a Ligue 1 match on 15 August 2009 when coach Alain Perrin used him all the minutes in a 3–1 away loss in front of Toulouse.[1][2][3] His second and last appearance for Saint-Étienne was in a 3–1 loss in front of Lens from the 2009–10 Coupe de France quarter-finals.[1][2][4] Afterwards he went to play for the 2011–12 season at fourth league side, JA Drancy.[1][2]

In the summer of 2012, Mansaly went to play in Romania for Dinamo București where he was wanted by coach Dario Bonetti, the team needing a replacement for Djakaridja Koné.[1][2][5] In his first game he was used the whole match by Bonetti, playing in the central midfield along compatriot Issa Ba in the victory from the penalty shoot-out against CFR Cluj from the 2012 Supercupa României, having an appreciated evolution.[1][5][6] He also started playing in European competitions, appearing in both legs of the 4–1 aggregate loss in front of Metalist Kharkiv from the 2012–13 Europa League play-off round.[1][7] On 23 August 2013, he scored his first goal for Dinamo in a 6–0 victory against Universitatea Cluj, then on 13 December he scored another goal and provided an assist for Dorin Rotariu in a 4–0 over ACS Poli Timișoara.[1][8] On 21 November 2014 he scored his last goal for The Red Dogs in a 2–1 win against Gaz Metan Mediaș.[1][9]

In September 2015, Mansaly signed a two-seasons contract with Astra Giurgiu, in the first one he played 13 league games under the guidance of coach Marius Șumudică as the team won the title.[1][2][10] In the following season he played six games in the Europa League campaign as Astra reached the sixteenths-finals of the competition where they were defeated by Genk.[1][11] In the same season, the club reached the 2017 Cupa României final but coach Șumudică did not use him in the loss in front of FC Voluntari.[12] On 13 May 2017, in the last round of the season, he made his last Liga I appearance in a 1–1 with his former team, Dinamo, having a total of 104 matches with three goals scored in the competition.[1][13]

In 2017, Mansaly left Romania to go play for Turkish second league BB Erzurumspor, then moving in Lebanon at Salam Zgharta, afterwards going in Kazakhstan at Atyrau with whom he reached the 2019 Kazakhstan Cup final, where coach Kuanysh Karakulov sent him on the field in the 74th minute in order to replace Mikhail Gabyshev but got replaced in the 113th minute with Ivan Antipov in the 2–1 loss in extra time in front of Kaysar Kyzylorda.[2][14][15][16] In 2020, Mansaly returned to Africa, firstly in Nigeria at Spotlights, then in Libya at Abu Salem where he retired in 2022.[2][14]
