Khadim Diaw (born 7 July 1998) is a professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Sudan Premier League club Al-Hilal SC. Born in Senegal, he plays for the Mauritania national team.
Club career
Diaw is a youth product of Génération Foot, and spent his early career with them helping them win 2 Senegal Premier Leagues and 1 Senegal FA Cup.[1] On 2 November 2020, he joined the Guinean club Horoya on loan.[2] After his debut season, he was nominated for an individual league award, and he formally signed for Horoya on a 3-year contract.[3][4]
On 26 July 2023, Diaw signed for Sudanese club Al-Hilal SC on a four-year contract.[5]
International career
Born in Senegal, Diaw is of Guinean descent through his mother, and Mauritanian descent through a grandmother.[6] He was part of the Senegal U23s that won the 2019 WAFU Cup of Nations. He was called up to Mauritania for a set of 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualification matches against the DR Congo in March 2023.[7] On 11 July, CAF awarded the match to DR Congo, as Diaw failed to follow the proper procedure for switching national teams after previously representing Senegal during 2020 African Nations Championship qualification, deeming him ineligible to represent Mauritania.[8]
