Ousmane Diao is a Senegalese central defender, born on 8 June 2004 (age 22), who plays for FC Midtjylland and wears the number four shirt. His current market value is around £6.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His strongest league return so far came in 2024-2025 with Midtjylland, when he scored four goals in 25 appearances. For a centre-half, that is a useful contribution rather than a footnote, and it helped mark him out as more than just another young defender passing through the Danish game.
In 2026-2027, Diao has also made an impact in Europe, scoring twice in nine Europa League appearances for Midtjylland. At this stage of his career, he is an established young professional with a growing body of senior football behind him, rather than a prospect being judged purely on potential.
