In April 2014, he signed a two-year contract with the Icelandic club FH Hafnarfjörður and prolonged his contract for two more years until the end of 2017. With FH, he won two Icelandic championships.
In December 2017, he signed with the Slovenian club Maribor. In January 2019, he left the club without making a single appearance in official matches after his contract was mutually terminated. Doumbia then joined Belgian club Lierse Kempenzonen in the summer 2019. In January 2020, he was sent down to Lierse's B-team alongside François D'Onofrio.
