On 9 July 2011, Bah signed a one-year amateur contract with Eerste Divisie club Eindhoven after a successful trial.{{cite news |title=Eindhoven verwelkomt Bah en drie proefspelers |url=https://www.fcupdate.nl/voetbalnieuws/2011/07/eindhoven-verwelkomt-bah-en-drie-proefspelers |access-date=2 February 2025 |work=FCUpdate.nl |date=9 July 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250202124511/https://www.fcupdate.nl/voetbalnieuws/2011/07/eindhoven-verwelkomt-bah-en-drie-proefspelers |archive-date=2 February 2025 |language=nl}} He made his debut for the club on 5 August, coming on as a 67th-minute substitute for Leon Kantelberg in a 3–0 victory against Emmen on the first matchday of the 2011–12 season.{{cite web |title=Eindhoven vs. Emmen 3–0: Summary |url=https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2011/08/05/netherlands/eerste-divisie/fc-eindhoven/fc-emmen/1120623/ |website=Soccerway |publisher=Perform Group |access-date=2 February 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230604153722/https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2011/08/05/netherlands/eerste-divisie/fc-eindhoven/fc-emmen/1120623/ |archive-date=4 June 2023}} He made only four appearances for the club before agreeing to a mutual termination of his contract in October 2011, as the conditions were deemed insufficient for his development. Following discussions with technical manager Hans Smulders and head coach Ernest Faber, it was decided that he would continue his career elsewhere.{{cite news |title=FC Eindhoven en Bah uit elkaar |url=https://www.ed.nl/fc-eindhoven/fc-eindhoven-en-bah-uit-elkaar~ac68869f/ |access-date=2 February 2025 |work=Eindhovens Dagblad |date=13 October 2011 |language=nl}} He then played shortly for amateur club EHC Hoensbroek between 2013 and 2014.{{Soccerway|alpha-ibrahim-bah/49769}}
