Assane Diao
19-Year-Old
Como
Serie A
OUT
Injury Foot
Est. Return 9/15/2025
Will miss more time
Diao "appeared to have escaped with nothing significant, but he was still in pain. We did more tests that didn't go well, as he's still affected by last season's injury. He'll be sidelined for a few weeks," coach Cesc Fabregas announced.
ANALYSIS
Diao had a rollercoaster couple of days after experiencing some discomfort in training. The team will act cautiously given the previous problem in the same area, and he'll be shut down for a while. His timetable is up in the air, as it'll depend on his level of comfort. Mergim Vojvoda is starting as a winger in an emergency situation in this one since Jayden Addai (ankle) is also on the mend and Nicolas Kuhn (Achilles) isn't 100 percent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to England
Newcastle are analyzing the possibility of signing Diao, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Diao came through the Real Betis ranks but has looked impressive at Como, and it wouldn't be shocking if he joins a bigger club in the summer. He nearly completed a move to Brentford before joining Como, and now he might end up in the Premier League anyway.
