28-Year-Old
Valencia
La Liga
Joins Valencia
Dieng signed a two-year contract with Valencia through June 2028 after joining from Al Ahly, the club announced.
ANALYSIS
Dieng arrives in Spain following a highly successful spell with Al Ahly, where he made 250 appearances and established himself as one of Africa's top defensive midfielders. The Mali international won multiple domestic and continental trophies during his time in Egypt, including four CAF Champions League titles. At 28 years old, he brings leadership, experience and physicality to Valencia's midfield, having also served as a key figure and captain for the Mali national team. Known for his ball-winning ability, defensive work rate and distribution from deep positions, Dieng should provide stability and presence in the center of the pitch.
