Club career
Nordsjælland
Growing up in Wassakara in the Yopougon suburb of the Ivorian capital of Abidjan,[1] Diomande came to the Danish club FC Nordsjælland through the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana. He made his professional debut on 19 February 2020 in a Danish Superliga match against AC Horsens, starting at central midfield in the 6–0 home win before being replaced in the 60th minute by Clinton Antwi.[4] Diomande was subsequently praised by head coach Flemming Pedersen, who stated that "[h]e covers a large area of the pitch [...] he's a good dribler and physically strong. When he adjusts to the Superliga, he will also become one of our most important players."[5] He finished his first season as a senior player with 15 total appearances.[6]
Diomande scored his first goal for Nordsjælland on 13 September 2020, the first matchday of the 2020–21 season, in a 3–2 loss to Brøndby IF.[7]
