Impact Diarra is progressing well in his recovery from a groin injury but the medical staff wants to be patient with him as they want to have him at his best for the second half of the season. This suggests Diarra might not return before the end of December, although this will depend on his evolution.

Impact Diarra hasn't played since September after sustaining a groin injury. He was a regular when healthy and is likely to have that same role once he's able to return, but for now, Sunderland will allow him to take all the time he needs to recover and get back to full fitness.

Impact Diarra will need several months to recover and rehabilitate from the surgery he underwent successfully on Monday after suffering a groin injury in training ahead of Sunday's clash with the Villains. This is a big blow for the Black Cats since the midfielder has been an undisputed starter in the heart of the game under coach Regis Le Bris since his arrival from Strasbourg in the summer. His absence will need to be covered while he is sidelined, with Chris Rigg likely getting a larger role in the midfield.

Impact Diarra was sidelined for Sunday's contest with an injury that has now been confirmed as a muscle issue. This is unfortunate, as their manager did hint he could miss multiple weeks due to the injury, possibly leaving him with a return date near the next international break. He has been a regular starter for the club, so this is a blow for the time being, with Chris Rigg likely to earn more time due to Diarra's absence.

Missing Sunday Diarra is out for Sunday's match against Aston Villa due to undisclosed reasons.

Impact Diarra is not with Sunderland Sunday, with the midfielder left off the team sheet completely despite no prior report of his absence. This is a major absence for the club, as he has started in all four games leading up to the Villa game. He is replaced by Chris Riggs in the midfield, with the midfielder now looking to have avoided a major injury and make a quick return.

Signs in Sunderland Diarra made the move to Sunderland from Strasbourg, the club announced.

Impact Diarra is joining Sunderland, where he should immediately play a large role at the center of the park. He did well in Strasbourg, but will have to cope with a very physical Premier League that could limit his time on the ball. Diarra doesn't offer a ton going forward, but a handful of goal contributions is possible.
