Diop, who has been in excellent form since recovering from a long-term injury, has played a crucial role in his team’s push for promotion.
With five goals and four assists this season, the 20-year-old has re-established himself as a key figure for the Belgian club.

Under contract until 2028, the African U20 champion has emerged as one of Zulte Waregem’s most influential players.
His ability to dictate play and deliver in crucial moments has earned him widespread recognition, with his performances proving decisive in the club’s aspirations for a top-flight return.
With the season reaching its decisive phase, Diop’s form could be pivotal in determining whether Zulte Waregem can reclaim their place in Belgium’s top division.
