Born in Dunkirk, Nord, Sangaré started playing for the USL Dunkerque youth system in 1993, but at the age of 16 in 2000 he joined the ES Wasquehal youth system. While at university, where he studied for a sports science degree, he earned a professional contract with Wasquehal and was included on the substitutes' bench in a Ligue 2 game against SM Caen towards the end of the 2002–03 season. He trained with Wasquehal in the morning and studied in the afternoon and made four appearances in the Championnat National during the 2003–04 season. For the third year of his degree he moved to England to study at the University of Roehampton, and signed for Conference South club Redbridge in September 2004. After scoring on his debut in a 3–1 victory over Havant & Waterlooville he made six appearances for Redbridge before moving to Isthmian League Premier Division club Chelmsford City in January 2005, where he played one game in the Isthmian League Cup, in a 1–0 victory at Hertford Town on 3 January. He returned to Redbridge later in January and made another seven appearances for the club in the 2004–05 season, which concluded with the club being relegated to the Isthmian League Premier Division. He signed for Conference South team Lewes in the summer of 2005 and joined St Albans City on a one-month loan in August 2005. After making five appearances and scoring on goal for St Albans he returned to Lewes. He finished the 2005–06 season with 26 appearances and one goal for the club. Sangaré signed for Conference National club Grays Athletic on a one-year contract in August 2006. He made eight appearances before being loaned out to Conference National side St Albans for the rest of the 2006–07 season in January 2007. He made 17 appearances and scored two goals for St Albans as they were relegated to the Conference South. After being released by Grays he joined Conference Premier club Stafford Rangers in July 2007 and finished the 2007–08 season with 39 appearances and two goals. Sangaré moved to Conference Premier team Salisbury City in July 2008 following a trial and he made 20 appearances in the 2008–09 season. He joined Conference Premier club York City on 25 July 2009 after impressing on trial. Following the end of the 2009–10 season, which he finished with 28 appearances and three goals, Sangaré signed a new six-month contract with York. He agreed to sign for Moroccan Botola champions Wydad Casablanca following the expiry of his York contract on 31 December 2010, but after this fell through he returned to England in January 2011 for a trial with League Two club Lincoln City. After being offered a contract for the rest of the 2010–11 season Sangaré signed instead for fellow League Two side Oxford United on 13 January. He made his debut for Oxford as a substitute in their 2–1 home victory over Bradford City on 15 January 2011.
