Diaw began his career in the youth teams of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). He made one senior appearance, playing 17 minutes in a friendly against TSV Hartberg on 8 July 2014.[2] After being released by PSG in 2015, Diaw signed for Portuguese Segunda Liga outfit Mafra on 29 July 2015.[3]
In April 2017, Diaw went on trial with EFL Championship side Leeds United.[4] He joined Bulgarian side Lokomotiv Plovdiv in July 2017.[5] Following a short and successful trial period, on 8 July 2017 he signed a 2-year contract.[6]
In 2019, Diaw joined FC United Zürich in Switzerland.[7] In June 2019, he signed for second-tier Swiss club Lausanne-Sport, where he replaced the injured second goalkeeper Dany Da Silva.[8]
Diaw made his return to France on 14 June 2022, signing for Ligue 1 side Clermont on a two-year contract with an option for a further year.[9]
Born in France, Diaw is of Senegalese descent.[10]
During his time at Paris Saint-Germain, Diaw became a trending topic on social media site Twitter after a string of obscene tweets posted by his account. Tweets included vulgar jokes and even posting the phone number of teammate Zlatan Ibrahimović.[11][12] Club officials were quick to address the issue, claiming Diaw's account had been hacked.[13] The tweets have since been deleted.[citation needed]
