She thanked supporters for being there in good times and tougher ones, said she had met wonderful people, grown and learned, and would keep many memories. She added that Lyon would always have a special place in her heart and this was not a goodbye, only a brief farewell.

Diani departs after 94 appearances and 43 goals, winning the French title with OL Lyonnes in 2024, 2025 and 2026.

She underwent knee surgery at the end of last season and missed the Champions League final, which Lyon lost to Barça 4-0.
