Aboubacar Bassinga (born 13 July 2005) is an Ivorian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Spanish club UD Las Palmas C.

Career
Born in Abidjan, Bassinga left his country at the age of 14 after boarding a boat; he intended to meet his uncle in France, but ran into authorities upon arriving in Arguineguín on 13 February 2020. He then joined the youth sides of UD Las Palmas, but had to wait until September 2023, when he turned 18, to start to play a competition for the club.

On 7 January 2024, before even having appeared for the reserves, Bassinga made his first team – and professional – debut, starting in a 2–0 away loss to rivals CD Tenerife, for the season's Copa del Rey.
