Career

Sangara passed through the youth ranks of Vancouver Whitecaps FC, playing in U14 and U15 Mountain WFC, and U16 Coastal WFC teams, competing in the Super Y-League. In 2010, with the folding of Whitecaps prior to their move to the MLS imminent, Sangara moved to the local Vancouver FC. He excelled there, playing in the PCSL 2010 Men's U21 Reserve Challenge Cup, scoring 18 goals in the 12 possible matches, and being selected the final game MVP,[2] aged only 17. He moved subsequently to another local club, Richmond FC Hibernians, playing in the Vancouver Metro Soccer League. In the spring of 2011, he moved across the pond to Croatia, joining the NK Zagreb U-19 team. Outgrowing the U-19 league, he didn't get a contract from his club and after a few trials with Prva HNL clubs joined the Četvrta HNL Središte A team NK Sloga Gredelj Zagreb, scoring 10 goals in 15 matches in the fall of 2011.
