Club career

As a little girl, Kadidiatou Diani played football with her brothers on the street as often as possible; she started with club sport in 2005 at the Entente Sportive de Vitry , from where she went to the Union Sportive d'Ivry two years later . In 2010 she joined the women's football club Juvisy FCF .

In this season also her international career began as a regular player in the French B-youth-selection (see below) . TheThe striker made 18 appearances and two hits in the top women's division by summer 2014, but was only in the starting line-up in two games. There were also five appearances in the 2012/13 European Cup , with Juvisy's consolation hit in the semi-final second leg against the local rivals from Olympique Lyon with a deliberate lift from the edge of the penalty area . Diani was contractually bound to this club until 2017, although she had to assert herself there in the current season against a number of very aggressive, goal-threatening and experienced teammates ( Gaëtane Thiney , Sandrine Brétigny , Janice Cayman , Camille Catala , Julie Machart , Lilas Traïkia ) .

After a total of seven years at Juvisy, she joined the capital club PSG , where she won the runner-up and the national cup in her first season .
