Sawadogo made his Ligue 2 debut with AJ Auxerre at 9 August 2013 against Nîmes Olympique.[2] In 2014, he joined Clermont Foot. On 22 December he signed a 2+1⁄2-year contract with Greek Superleague club Levadiakos for an undisclosed fee. It was his first time in his career that will play in the highest level.[3] On 14 April 2018, he scored with an astonishing effort helping his club to win 1-0 rivals Asteras Tripoli. It was his first goal with the club.[4]

Sawadogo returned to France with Gazélec Ajaccio in January 2020, and then moved to US Créteil-Lusitanos in June 2020.[5] He was released at the end of the season, and spent six months without a club, before signing for US Granville in early February 2022.[6]
