Mamadou Diallo, the captain and leading striker of CSKA Sofia, has emerged as one of the most sought-after forwards in European and Middle Eastern football.
The 29-year-old Senegalese striker, who joined the Bulgarian side on a free transfer from Châteauroux last summer, has impressed with 11 goals in 18 league appearances, making him joint-top scorer in the Bulgarian First League alongside Ivaylo Chochev.
His performances have not only helped his team but have also earned him recognition as a prolific and reliable attacking player.
Diallo, who previously played for FC 93, Blanc-Mesnil, Chambly, and Boulogne, is now reportedly attracting interest from several clubs abroad.
Sources indicate that Egyptian giants Al-Ahly, German side Heidenheim of the Bundesliga, and a number of Saudi clubs are monitoring his situation closely. Reports suggest a potential winter transfer could be agreed for around €1 million.
At CSKA Sofia, Diallo has quickly become a central figure, not just for his goal-scoring ability but also for his leadership on and off the pitch.
His impact has been particularly notable given his adaptation to a new league and country, highlighting his professionalism and consistency.
For clubs looking to strengthen their forward line, Diallo represents an experienced yet still dynamic option.
His combination of goal-scoring instinct, physical presence, and leadership has made him a prime target for teams in Europe and the Middle East seeking immediate reinforcement.
With the January transfer window open, all eyes will be on CSKA Sofia and Diallo as negotiations potentially unfold, offering the striker an opportunity to take his career to a new level while providing interested clubs with a proven goal threat.
