**Baye Djiby Fall** (born 20 April 1985), often referred to simply as **Djiby**, is a Senegalese professional [football](/source/Association_football) coach and a former [forward](/source/Forward_(association_football)). He is the manager of [Génération Foot](/source/G%C3%A9n%C3%A9ration_Foot). Fall last played for [Hobro IK](/source/Hobro_IK) in the [2018–19 Danish Superliga](/source/2018%E2%80%9319_Danish_Superliga). Fall has previously played professionally for top-flight clubs in Denmark, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Norway and Belgium. In Norway, he was the top goalscorer in [Tippeligaen](/source/Tippeligaen) with his 16 goals for [Molde FK](/source/Molde_FK).

## Career

Fall playing for [Lokomotiv Moscow](/source/FC_Lokomotiv_Moscow) in 2009

Born in [Thiès](/source/Thi%C3%A8s), Senegal, Fall moved to France at the age of 18,[1] where he joined [Auxerre](/source/AJ_Auxerre)'s academy. After spells at the French club [AS Vitré](/source/AS_Vitr%C3%A9), Danish club [Randers](/source/Randers_FC) and Emirati club [Al Ain](/source/Al_Ain_FC) he joined [Odense Boldklub](/source/Odense_Boldklub) in January 2008 where he was named the best player in the [Danish Superliga](/source/Danish_Superliga).[2] After 18 goals in 33 matches for OB[3] the Senegalese top striker moved to Russian club [Lokomotiv Moscow](/source/FC_Lokomotiv_Moscow).

After playing 11 matches for Lokomotiv Moscow without scoring any goals, he was loaned out to Norwegian club [Molde](/source/Molde_FK) on 25 January 2010. Molde's head coach [Kjell Jonevret](/source/Kjell_Jonevret) said that even though Fall was bigger and stronger, and a different kind of player than [Mame Biram Diouf](/source/Mame_Biram_Diouf), he was considered a replacement for the player who was transferred to [Manchester United](/source/Manchester_United_F.C.). Fall's loan deal lasted until 30 August 2010, with an option to buy.[3] In July 2010, Molde extended the loan-deal to the end of the 2010-season and Fall went on to become [top scorer of Tippeligaen](/source/List_of_Eliteserien_top_scorers) (the Norwegian top division) for the 2010 season,[4] despite a lower half finish for Molde. Fall became the first Molde player since [Jan Fuglset](/source/Jan_Fuglset) in 1976 with this achievement.[5] Fall was later loaned out to his old club OB, and in the [2011–12 UEFA Europa League](/source/2011%E2%80%9312_UEFA_Europa_League), he scored with his final move in the 93rd minute to dump [Fulham](/source/Fulham_F.C.) out of the competition following a 2–2 draw.

Fall with [Greuther Fürth](/source/SpVgg_Greuther_F%C3%BCrth) in 2012

In January 2012, Fall joined the Belgium club [Lokeren](/source/K.S.C._Lokeren_Oost-Vlaanderen).[6] In August 2012, he was signed as a replacement for [Olivier Occéan](/source/Olivier_Occ%C3%A9an) in the German club [Greuther Fürth](/source/SpVgg_Greuther_F%C3%BCrth), who had been promoted to the [Bundesliga](/source/Bundesliga) for the first time. Germany became the eighth country Fall had been playing football in the last eight years.[1] Fall played two matches without scoring a goal during his first season in Germany, and after the season Greuther Fürth was trying to sell Fall to another club.[7] He returned to his old club Randers on the last day of the transfer window.[8]

### Irtysh Pavlodar

In February 2016, Fall went on trial with [Kazakhstan Premier League](/source/Kazakhstan_Premier_League) side [FC Irtysh Pavlodar](/source/FC_Irtysh_Pavlodar),[9] signing for them on 3 March 2016.[10]

After initially announcing the release of Fall on 1 July 2016,[11] [FC Irtysh Pavlodar](/source/FC_Irtysh_Pavlodar) announced on 6 July 2016 that due to a ban imposed on them registering new players Fall would continue playing for the club.[12]

Fall signed for [Hobro IK](/source/Hobro_IK) in Denmark in the summer of 2018. He left the club again at the end of his contract, which was on 1 January 2019, after playing 6 games for the club.[13]

### FC Cincinnati

Fall competing for FC Cincinnati of the United Soccer League in a game against St. Louis FC in Cincinnati on 24 June 2017

On 13 February 2017, Fall signed for [United Soccer League](/source/United_Soccer_League) side [FC Cincinnati](/source/FC_Cincinnati_(2016%E2%80%9318)).[14] He scored four goals in FC Cincinnati's home opener on 15 April 2017. On 22 April 2017, Fall was shown a red card towards the end of a match against [Louisville City FC](/source/Louisville_City_FC) at Nippert Stadium in Cincinnati. In an exchange that took place as he was exiting the pitch, Fall allegedly bit Louisville midfielder [Niall McCabe](/source/Niall_McCabe) on the cheek. This resulted in a six-game ban and an undisclosed fine handed down by the USL. Fall was released by Cincinnati at the end of their 2017 season.[15]
