First playing with the reserve team in National 3, his performance—most notably a hat trick against during a 4-1 win against the Académie Moulins—quickly granted him an access to the first team, as he signed his first professional contract with the Auvergnats early November 2021. Diaby made his professional debut for Clermont Foot on 1 December 2021, replacing an injured Jim Allevinah at the 63rd minute of a 2–2 home Ligue 1 draw against Lens. Whilst he saw hist team equalize just after he came on – as Mohamed Bayo scored the last goal of the game –, Diaby was red carded at the 84th, after he accidentally kicked an opponent. This exclusion earned him a 2 rounds ban from the French competition. International career
