Youth
[edit]Gall was born in Paris, France, to a French father and a Senegalese mother.[2] Gall moved to the United States with his family at the age of seven. The family settled in Herndon, Virginia, and Gall received his U.S. citizenship at fifteen.[3]
Gall played for the academy teams of D.C. United and Real Salt Lake before joining the academy of FC Lorient in 2011. Ranked as the #2 recruit in his class, he committed to playing college soccer for the University of Maryland, but instead opted to play with the reserves at Lorient.[4]

After a breakout performance in the spring of 2018, where he scored 7 goals in 13 appearances from a midfield position, Gall secured a move to Allsvenskan powerhouse Malmö FF halfway through the season.[9]
In January 2023, Gall joined Serbian SuperLiga club Mladost Novi Sad.[10]
In September 2023, Gall signed for Regionalliga Nordost (German 4th tier) club Rot-Weiß Erfurt.[11]
