Camara, a former Syli Nationale captain, has before attempted to run for the Feguifoot presidency but did not meet the requirements to contest.

Before retiring, he featured 56 times for Guinea and scored 23 goals and also turned out for Marseille, Lens, Saint Etienne and West Ham United in his club career.

After briefly coaching Guinea in 2009, the former Liverpool striker was appointed Guinea Sports Minister in 2010 and spent two years in that role.
