Club career

[edit]

Diabate spent his youth career at the JMG Academy and FC Guidars.[2][3] After going on trial with Austrian club Liefering in December 2022,[2] he officially joined parent club Red Bull Salzburg on 20 December, signing a five-year professional contract that was set to activate from January 2023.[3][4] In the process, he became the fifth player to join the Austrian club through their affiliation with Guidars, following the likes of Nene Dorgeles, Daouda Guindo, Mamady Diambou and Moussa Yeo.[3][4] The midfielder was assigned to Liefering's squad for the rest of the 2022–23 season.[3][4]

On 1 April 2023, Diabate made his professional debut for Liefering, coming on as a substitute for Tolgahan Sahin at half-time of a 3–1 league defeat to Kapfenberger SV.[5][6] On 23 September, he was sent-off for a double yellow card in a 3–0 league loss to Grazer AK.[7][8]

On 31 March 2024, Diabate scored his first professional goal for Liefering in a 4–1 league win over Floridsdorfer AC.[9]
