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[5]—quickly granted him an access to the first team, as he signed his first professional contract with the Auvergnats early November 2021.[6][7][8]
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.[9][10][11] This exclusion earned him a 2 rounds ban from the French competition.[12]
