Boukary Dramé (born 22 July 1985) is a professional football player who operates primarily as a left-back. Although born in France, he has represented Senegal at the international level.

Paris Saint-Germain

Originating from Villepinte, Seine-Saint-Denis, Dramé started his football journey with CSL Aulnay-sous-Bois before entering the pre-academy setup of Paris Saint-Germain F.C. located in Verneuil. After advancing through the youth system at PSG, he earned promotion to the senior squad in 2005, debuting in Ligue 1 on 11 September 2005 against RC Strasbourg. During the 2005–06 campaign, he appeared in four games and increased his involvement to 20 matches in the following season as PSG narrowly escaped relegation.

Sochaux

In July 2007, Dramé chose not to renew his contract with PSG and instead committed to a four-year contract with fellow Ligue 1 outfit FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. His initial season saw limited playing time, compounded by a significant ankle sprain sustained during his debut against PSG.

On 1 September 2008, he was loaned out for the season to Spanish Segunda División club Real Sociedad, where he featured only once. In 2009, Dramé trialed with Birmingham City with hopes of joining the English Premier League but did not finalize a deal.

The 2010–11 season saw him make 26 appearances for Sochaux and score twice. However, after undergoing knee surgery in January, he was sidelined for several weeks. With his contract concluding that year, Sochaux proposed an extension which did not meet his financial expectations. Upon release, interest came from clubs such as Beşiktaş, Trabzonspor, Lecce, and VfB Stuttgart. In June 2011, links emerged connecting him with a potential move to Newcastle United.

Chievo

In August 2011, Dramé underwent a trial period at Leeds United before securing a free transfer from Sochaux to ChievoVerona on 23 August.

Paganese

Following a season without competitive appearances in 2018–19, Dramé signed with Serie C side Paganese on 3 October 2019.
