Est. Return 10/25/2025
Return pushed back
Diao (foot) "will need more time than initially anticipated, but he might be back after the Juventus game in late October," coach Cesc Fabregas announced.
ANALYSIS
Diao will spend the upcoming break rehabbing but won't return right after it, although he's set to gradually ramp up during it. The gaffer preached caution considering it's a relapse, so the timetable remains fluid. Nicolas Kuhn, Jesus Rodriguez and Jayden Addai will be the top options on the wings for the foreseeable future.

Taking specialistic tests
Diao "isn't training because of an issue related to his old injury. When something happens four months after a surgery, it's normal to worry. I can't say when he'll be back: we can choose either the long or the short road, but he has to be 100 percent when he's back. He didn't suffer a new fracture but has a problem where the plate has been inserted," coach Cesc Fabregas relayed.

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.

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.
