Chants of “Diakhaby, Diakhaby!” welcomed the defender as he made his way through a guard of honor formed by hundreds of raised hands on the Football 8 Pitch 2 at Valencia CF’s Ciutat Esportiva.

Diakhaby encouraged the children to keep enjoying football and never give up in the face of adversity. A true example of resilience for football fans everywhere, the centre-back returned to action this week in the friendly against CD Eldense after seven months on the sidelines.

KIDS FROM 48 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES

Diakhaby’s visit marks the final stretch of the 2026 Valencia CF Summer Camp, which throughout July has welcomed nearly 1,000 children from 48 countries around the world.
