Loaned to Oman Professional League side Fanja SC for four months, Diaw lifted the 2015-16 Oman Professional League trophy with the club, earning the man-of-the-match award in the last round of the season.

The Moroccan media spread rumors that KAC Kénitra of the Botola Pro offered to buy the youngster from ASAC Concorde in 2015 but negotiations failed on the transfer.

In 2019, he signed for Dnyapro Mogilev.

In 2021, he signed for Manama Club.

He is a Mauritania international.

During a 2016 game against Tunisia, Diaw was involved in a fight with winger Wahbi Khazri, who retaliated by hitting the Mauritanian in right side of his face. Both players were given red cards. Following the friendly, national team coach Corentin Martins excluded the defender for his behavior on the pitch, holding several meetings with the player to discipline and harangue him about his actions.
