Club Career
Faye started his career with hometown's ASC Diaraf, moving in 1996 to Portugal with União de Montemor (third division) alongside compatriot and teammate Fary Faye, and going on to remain in the country for the remainder of his career.
After helping F.C. Felgueiras finish fifth and seventh in consecutive second level seasons, he attracted the attention of Boavista F.C. in the top division, but could never be more than backup with the Porto outfit, barred by Portuguese international Ricardo first, then Cameroonian William Andem (also an international for his country) after the former left for Sporting Clube de Portugal in 2003.
Faye was further demoted to third-choice after Boavista signed Carlos Fernandes. His best league output consisted of eight games (seven starts, 12 goals conceded) in the 2004–05 season, as Boavista finished in sixth position, narrowly missing out on UEFA Cup qualification; aged nearly 37, he left the club and retired from football.

Famous quotes containing the words club and/or career:
“I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
