Bojang is of Gambian descent.[1] He played youth football in Skeid, and made his first-team debut in the last match of the 2010 season. From 2011 he played junior football for Vålerenga for two and a half seasons, before joining Drøbak-Frogn in the summer of 2013. In 2014, he returned to Skeid, spending one and a half season there. In late 2015 he played for Grorud, and in early 2016 for Lørenskog. In July 2016 he was signed by top-tier club Start,[2][3][4] and made his debut in a 24 home loss against Vålerenga.

Bojang had featured for Vålerenga's first team in a 2013 friendly match.[5] Prior to joining Start, Bojang also negotiated a transfer with Mjøndalen IF, Kristiansund BK and Falkenbergs FF.[4] Ahead of the 2017 season, on the last day of the winter transfer window, he did join Mjøndalen IF.[6]
