Moussa Diarra (born 4 February 1990) is a French professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for National League South club Eastbourne Borough.
Diarra was born in Élancourt and played for clubs in his home town, and in Montigny-le-Bretonneux, before moving to England in 2011. He had a trial with Tooting & Mitcham United before joining Horley Town in October 2011. In February 2012, he joined St Albans City, before signing for Hemel Hempstead Town in January 2013.[1] [2] After two loan spells with Hampton & Richmond Borough in the 2014-15 season, Diarra joined the Beavers permanently in July 2015.[3] After one season, he became a full-time player after joining Barrow in summer 2016.[4] He joined Dover Athletic for the 2018-19 season as he wanted to live closer to France, but struggled to break into the team as he recovered from a pulled hamstring and joined Woking on loan until the end of the season, when the move was made permanent.[5] Diarra turned down a new contract offer from the Cards at the end of the season and joined Havant & Waterlooville. However, he re-joined Woking on a permanent basis after the National League South season was curtailed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.[6] Diarra signed for Barnet ahead of the 2022-23 season.[7]
On 26 August 2023, Diarra joined Dartford on loan until January 2024. Then, he joined Eastbourne Borough on loan until the end of the 2023-24 season,[8] when he was released by Barnet.[9]
