Alongside fellow Frenchman Loick Ayina, he moved to Huddersfield Town in July 2019, and they both signed professional contracts with the club a year later. [4]

On 4 January 2022, Diarra joined EFL League Two side Harrogate Town on loan for the remainder of the 2021–22 season. [6]

International career

On 17 March 2023, Diarra was selected to play for the Mali national under-23 football team for their Africa U-23 Cup of Nations qualifiers against Senegal U23.
