Having grown up between Tillou and Chef-Boutonne, Oumar Ngom went through the youth ranks of the Chamois Niortais, starting to play with the reserve team in National 3 during the 2021–22 season.[2][3][4][5]
First appearing in the main team squad in early 2022,[5][6] he made his professional debut for Niort on 5 March 2022, replacing Nacim El Hassani at the 61st minute of a 0–1 Ligue 2 home loss to AC Ajaccio.[7]
Of Senegalese and Mauritanian descent—his father, Cheikh Ngom, was a Mauritania international in the '80s[8]—, he became a youth international for his father's country, playing the Africa U-17 Cup of Nations qualification in 2021 and scoring a goal despite his team failing to reach the final tournament.[5][8]
