France born defender of Guinean descent, Bafodé Diakité will miss the match between Lille OSC and Olympique Marseille in the French Ligue 1 this weekend.
The Lille OSC defender is suspended and cannot make the matchday squad of his team heading into the big game.
Bafodé Diakité, 24, picked up a two-game suspension for accumulating too many yellow cards and also for his sending off in the victory over Angers SCO last weekend.
He has been one of the key defenders for Lille this season and will be a big miss for his team.
This season, he has played every single game in the French Ligue 1 except the 2-1 defeat to Le Havre in February.
In his absence, Lille will hope to get a win against Olympique Marseille on Sunday, May 4, at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
The much-anticipated showdown promises a good game where both teams will be eager to amass all three points.
Bafodé Diakité will be rooting for his team in the stands.
