Gaoussou Diarra, born on 21 November 2002 (age 23), is a Mali left winger now with Feyenoord, where he wears the No 27 shirt. His current market value is around £2m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career so far is shaped mainly by his spell at Istanbulspor. In the 2024-25 season he made 33 league appearances and scored 15 goals, a return that did most of the work in putting him on a wider radar.
At Feyenoord in 2026-27, Diarra has made 14 appearances in all competitions and scored two goals, including nine Eredivisie outings and two in the Champions League. He has also been involved with Mali, making four appearances in African World Cup qualifying and scoring once.
Diarra remains a developing forward rather than a finished article. Istanbulspor supplied the breakthrough season; Feyenoord is now the test of whether that production can travel upward.
