Moussa Diarra - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Fit to play, not in plans Diarra is fit to play but remains out of the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet moving forward, according to Estadio Deportivo.

Impact Diarra is not in the plans of coach Eduardo Coudet anymore since the defender confronted the coach after figuring out that he will be a substitute in the cup game against Sevilla. Diarra is fit to play but unlikely to return to the match squad for the time being after losing his starting role to Youssef Enriquez earlier during the campaign.

Back available Diarra (foot) is back available for Monday's clash against Valencia, coach Gregoire Coudert said in the press conference. "They are all in position."

Impact Diarra trained fully with the team this week and is back available for Monday's clash against Valencia. This is good news for Alaves since Diarra is a regular starter in the backline and he is expected to claim his spot back moving forward.

Participating in full training Diarra (foot) is back in full training and should be an option to face Valencia on Monday, according to Jon Ander Goitia of El Correo.

Impact Diarra missed two games before the October international break due to a foot injury, but the left-back left those injury woes behind and is now training with the rest of his teammates. If deemed healthy enough, Diarra shouldn't waste time in recover his starting role on the left side of the defense.

Impact Diarra is set to miss a second straight game due to a nagging foot injury, and he'll aim to recover after the international break. This means Youssef Enriquez could start at left-back in his place, with Victor Parada being another option.

Won't play vs. Mallorca Diarra is out for Saturday's game against Mallorca due to a foot injury, manager Eduardo Coudet told media Friday. "Moussa won't be joining us, he's dealing with a foot injury and...

Impact It sounds as if the injury isn't serious, but Alaves will take a cautious approach with the left-back, who was an unused sub in the draw against Getafe on Wednesday. Youssef Enriquez is expected to start in his place and should remain in the XI until Diarra is able to return.

Makes four clearances Diarra recorded three tackles (one won) and four clearances in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Athletic.

Starting Saturday Diarra (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Athletic Club.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Named to squad list Diarra (ankle) is on the squad list for Saturday's match against Athletic.

Impact Diarra has been included on the squad list for Saturday, appearing to overcome the ankle issue he suffered ahead of the break.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers ankle injury Diarra was forced off in the 58th minute of Saturday's 1-1 draw against Atletico due to an ankle injury, according to Noticias de Alava.

Impact Diarra was in the starting squad for the first time this season against the Colchoneros but was forced off before the one hour mark due to an ankle injury to his left foot. The defender will likely be assessed in the coming days to determine the extent of the injury and whether he can return directly after the international break or remain sidelined for longer. That said, he looks to be only a rotational option this season for Alaves, therefore his potential absence after the break will not impact the starting XI.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starts during preseason Diarra (nose) started and played 60 minutes in a friendly against Castellon.

JULY 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't make season finale Diarra (nose) is out for Saturday's match against Osasuna.

Impact Diarra is not going to recover from his broken nose in time for the season finale, as the mask he was prepared to wear will not help him on the sidelines. This is a tough way to end the season for a regular starter, not being with his team on the field to end the season. He ends the season starting in 20 of his 26 appearances, notching 21 interceptions, 20 tackles and 41 clearances.

MAY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Misses squad list Diarra (nose) is out for Sunday's match against Valladolid after being left off the squad list.

Impact Diarra is going to be on the outside of the call Sunday, with the defender out after suffering his fractured nose. This will leave him in jeopardy of missing their season finale as well. He is a regular starter, so this will force a change, with Facundo Garces and Santiago Mourino as the likely centerback pairing.

Impact Diarra suffered a broken nose in a collision with Dani Vivian in Sunday's game and was unavailable for Wednesday's match against Valencia despite being included in the squad list. He will likely be assessed in the coming days to determine if he can play with a mask on Sunday against Valladolid. If he is ruled out, it would not significantly affect the starting XI as Santiago Mourino is currently the preferred option in central defense for Alaves.

MAY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Suspension cleared Diarra completed his one-game suspension for yellow cards accumulation and will be eligible to face Rayo Vallecano on March. 29.

Impact Diarra missed Friday's 2-2 draw against Las Palmas due to suspension and is available for selection for their next contest after the international break. That said, he hasn't been a regular starter recently so his return will not affect the starting XI.

MARCH 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Wins crucial penalty Diarra had one tackle (one won), two clearances and two interceptions in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Valencia.

Impact Diarra played a crucial role in helping Deportivo Alvaes steal a point from Valencia. Not only did he put in a solid defensive shift, making two interceptions and winning eight of his 13 duels, but he was the player who won a penalty that Joan Jordan slotted home in the 88th minute. Though he does not have a goal or assist yet in the season, it is clear that when Alvaes needs a goal, Diarra is likely to push into the opposition's box. Hopefully, he can not only be the supplier, but the beneficiary of late heroics when Girona visit on January 11.

DECEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Surprise starter Sunday Diarra (migraine) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Osasuna.

Out with migraine Diarra is out for Sunday's match against Osasuna due to a migraine, according to his club.

Impact Diarra is out for the time being, with the defender suffering from a migraine that prevented him from traveling to Osasuna. This will force a change, as he did start in their last outing, with Manu Sanchez likely returning to the starting XI. This is an issue he can recover from quickly and will hope he can be fit to face Athletic on Dec. 15 in their next contest.

DECEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Transfers to Alaves Diarra has completed a transfer to Alaves from Toulouse, his new club announced.

Impact Diarra will be switching from one top-flight European league to another, with the defender set to join Spanish club Alaves. He is coming off a season mainly serving in a starting role, starting in 22 of his 30 appearances while bagging a goal and two assists to go along with 32 interceptions, 41 tackles and 49 clearances. He will likely see the same role with his new club, possibly even seeing more starts.
