[edit] Career

[edit] Bordeaux

Diabaté was promoted to the senior squad of Bordeaux for the 2008-09 season following a successful season in the CFA, where he made 35 appearances and scored 18 goals. Unfortunately, due to a surplus of more experienced strikers, manager Laurent Blanc loaned him out to the Corsica-based and Ligue 2 club AC Ajaccio to get more playing time.

[edit] Loan moves

Diabaté made his debut for Ajaccio in their opening match loss to Châteauroux playing the full 90 minutes. In the second match, he proved beneficial to the club scoring a brace in their 3–1 win over Stade Reims.[1] Three weeks later, he scored another brace, this time in a 4–0 thrashing of Vannes.[2] The following three weeks, he scored one goal in each match with Ajaccio earning wins over Brest[3] and Clermont[4] and drawing with Nîmes.[5]

Diabaté's positive play continued throughout the season scoring important game-winning goals against Guingamp[6], Lens[7], Angers[8], and Boulogne.[9] He also scored a goal in the annual Derby Corse against Bastia with the match finishing in a 1–1 draw.[10] Diabaté finished the season with 14 goals, a team high and 4th among Ligue 2 topscorers, helping the club stave off relegation on the final day of the season.

Cheik's play with Ajaccio earned him a contract extension with his parent club agreeing to remain in Bordeaux until June 2013.[11] Despite returning to Bordeaux on 1 July, on 20 July, he was sent on loan again, this time to fellow Ligue 1 club AS Nancy.[12]

[edit] International career

Diabaté participated in the 2005 African U-17 Championships with Mali, where they were knocked out of the tournament in the group stage. He has also earned senior caps with the Mali national football team.
