Mouctar Diakhaby - Page 3 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Comes off with knock, suspended Diakhaby came off during Friday's clash with Osasuna due to an injury in the second half. Prior to coming off, he scored one goal on one shot.

Impact Diakhaby was forced off holding his leg after a heavy challenge. The defender had scored once before coming off, his second goal of the campaign. He was replaced by Gabriel Paulista, who would figure to see more playing time if Diakhaby is ruled out. Diakhaby was sent off while coming off the pitch with injury and will be suspended against Elche.

Takes shot in win Diakhaby made four clearances and two interceptions in last weekend's 2-0 victory against Celta Vigo. He also took a shot in the match.

Impact Diakhaby tallied an assist and five clean sheets in 29 La Liga appearances (21 starts) this campaign as Valencia started switching more to a back-three in 2022. In four seasons with the club, however, the 25-year-old is still yet to really feel like a consistent, first-choice starter in central defense.

Suspended against Rayo Diakhaby will miss Monday's clash against Rayo Vallecano with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Impact Diakhaby picked up his 10th yellow card of the season in last weekend's draw against Cadiz, meaning he will be suspended for Monday's game. Hugo Guillamon could slide back to central defense for the game, or Valencia might revert back to a back-four in his absence.

Makes six clearances in draw Diakhaby made six clearancesz, two interceptions and two blocks while helping his side to keep a clean sheet during Saturday's scoreless draw against Getafe.

Impact Diakhaby, like fellow centre backs Gabriel Paulista and Omar Alderete, had some impressive numbers and gave very little room for opposing forwards to operate. With 14 clearances, five blocks and two clean sheets over his last two matches, Diakhaby will try to keep it up during Saturday's visit to Elche.

Eight clearances against Mallorca Diakhaby made eight clearances in a 1-0 win against Mallorca on Saturday.

Impact Diakhaby had a good outing for the winning team. The 25-year-old made eight clearances. Other than that, Diakhaby also blocked three shots.

Scores own goal in draw Diakhaby had one off-target shot, made one clearance and three interceptions and scored an own goal during Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Sevilla.

Impact Diakhaby had a nightmare start here as he sent the ball into his own net in the 7th minute while trying to clear a cross from the right wing. The centre back saw the opposition create a lot during the rest of the match, but couldn't produce enough numbers to recover from the early mistake. Up next for Diakhaby is Saturday's visit to Atletico Madrid.

Provides assist in win Diakhaby provided an assist and made three tackles (two won), six clearances and two interceptions during Saturday's 2-1 win over Valencia.

Impact Diakhaby had his usual numbers on defense but his biggest contribution came on the other end as the centre back assisted Cristiano Piccini for the goal that sealed the 2-1 for Valencia in the 86th minute. He looks to finally have regained his best form, starting four of the last five matches and racking up nine tackles and 14 clearances over this stretch. Up next for Diakhaby is Dec. 20 visit to Levante.

Picks up fifth yellow card Diakhaby created one chance, made three tackles (all won), one interception, five clearances and one block and picked up a yellow card in Saturday's 1-1 draw to Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Diakhaby had a good defensive outing, leading his side in tackles and making the second-most clearances, but it wasn't enough to keep the clean sheet and secure the win at home. The centerback also received his fifth yellow card and is suspended for Sunday's visit to Celta. He will be eligible to return against Elche on Dec 11.

Limited minutes off bench Diakhaby has played in 10 minutes over three matches to start the season.

Impact Diakhaby has fallen behind in the pecking order after the arrival of Omar Alderete, but it wouldn't be surprising to see his name called later in the campaign. For now, he'll have to ride the bench and wait for his chance.
