Early career

Sima was spotted by French club Thonon Évian whilst playing in Senegal for amateur club Medina. In 2020, Sima moved to Czech club MAS Táborsko under the advice of agent Daniel Chrysostome. Sima first came to the attention of Slavia Prague after scoring for Táborsko in a friendly against Viktoria Žižkov.
