Born in Lyon, Sambia joined the youth set-up at Niort from Mâcon in 2013.[4] In the summer of 2014, he was awarded a first-team contract alongside fellow youth midfielder Antoine Batisse.[4] Sambia made his senior debut for Niort on 12 September 2014 in the 1–0 defeat to Dijon at the age of 18 years and 5 days, becoming the youngest player ever to start a professional match for the club.[6] He went on to make five league appearances in total during the 2014–15 season.[2]

Salernitana
On 19 July 2022, Sambia signed a four-year contract with Salernitana in Italy.[9]
