First playing with the reserve team in National 3, his performance—most notably a hat trick against during a 4-1 win against the Académie Moulins[5] —quickly granted him an access to the first team, as he signed his first professional contract with the Auvergnats early November 2021.[6] [7]
Diaby made his professional debut for Clermont Foot on 1 December 2021, replacing an injured Jim Allevinah at the 63rd minute of a 2–2 home Ligue 1 draw against Lens. Whilst he saw hist team equalize just after he came on – as Mohamed Bayo scored the last goal of the game –, Diaby was red carded at the 84th, after he accidentally kicked an opponent.[8] [9] [10] This exclusion earned him a 2 rounds ban from the French competition.[11]
Diaby was born in Saint-Pierre, in Reunion Island (France), to Guinean parents.[12] [13] He debuted with the Guinea national team in a 2–0 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualification win over Ethiopia on 24 March 2023.[14]
An offensively-minded midfielder, Diaby is able to play both as a left or a right midfielder.
