Seattle Reign FC have completed the signing of Ivorian international forward Ami Diallo<\/strong> from ASEC Mimosas on a contract running through the 2028 NWSL season<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transfer sees the 25-year-old attacker move to the United States following a standout campaign in which she helped ASEC Mimosas retain their Ivorian Division 1 title and reach the CAF Women\u2019s Champions League final<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diallo joins Seattle for an agreed transfer fee and is expected to arrive in the coming weeks, pending receipt of her P-1 visa<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

31 Goals and Another League Title<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diallo enjoyed a remarkable 2025\/26 domestic campaign with ASEC Mimosas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The forward scored 31 goals<\/strong>, finishing second in the Ivorian Division 1 scoring charts, while helping the club secure their second consecutive league title<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her performances established Diallo as one of the leading attacking players in Ivorian women\u2019s football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now she will take those goalscoring numbers and attacking qualities to one of the world\u2019s most competitive women\u2019s leagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CAF Champions League Breakthrough<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diallo also made a major impact on the continental stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ASEC Mimosas reached the 2025 CAF Women\u2019s Champions League final<\/strong> in their first appearance in the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Across five matches, Diallo recorded:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • \u26bd 3 goals<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \ud83c\udd70\ufe0f 1 assist<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u2b50 A two-goal, one-assist performance against Gaborone United<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    That performance helped ASEC reach the semi-finals, while Diallo later scored ASEC\u2019s only goal in the final against Moroccan side AS FAR<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Although ASEC ultimately missed out on the trophy, Diallo\u2019s performances attracted significant attention across African women\u2019s football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Recognition Among Africa\u2019s Best<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Her outstanding season earned Diallo a place among the finalists for the 2025 CAF Women\u2019s Interclub Player of the Year<\/strong> award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    She was one of just three players shortlisted for the prestigious individual honour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That recognition further underlines the level of performance she produced before making the move to the NWSL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Seattle Reign See Huge Potential<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Seattle Reign FC General Manager Lesle Gallimore<\/strong> described Diallo as a dynamic attacking player with the ability to perform at a high level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Gallimore highlighted her quality, athleticism and competitive mentality<\/strong>, while also pointing to her potential to continue developing in Seattle\u2019s environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Reign believe Diallo\u2019s experience of competing internationally and at continental level will help her make the transition to the NWSL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Diallo Excited for the Next Chapter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Diallo is equally enthusiastic about the move to the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cI\u2019m very excited to join Seattle Reign FC and begin this next chapter of my career in the NWSL.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The forward added that she is looking forward to meeting her new teammates, competing in a new league and giving everything for the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    International Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Diallo also represents the C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire women\u2019s national team<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    She was included in the squad for the 2026 Women\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations<\/strong>, a significant tournament for C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire as they returned to WAFCON after more than a decade away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Diallo is part of a new generation of Ivorian players helping drive the country\u2019s resurgence in women\u2019s football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Her move to the NWSL now provides another opportunity to develop at an international level while competing against some of the best players in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What Ami Diallo Brings to Seattle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Diallo arrives with a huge amount of momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Her 31-goal domestic season<\/strong>, Champions League performances and recognition among Africa\u2019s top players demonstrate that she has been producing consistently at a high level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The biggest question will be how quickly she can adapt to the pace, physicality and tactical demands of the NWSL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      However, her athleticism and attacking mentality could make her an exciting addition to Seattle\u2019s forward line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Transfer Tribune Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This is one of the most fascinating women\u2019s transfers to watch.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Diallo has dominated domestically, performed on the continental stage and earned recognition as one of Africa\u2019s leading club players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Now comes the biggest test of her career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The move to Seattle Reign FC and the NWSL<\/strong> gives her the platform to prove that her performances in Africa can translate to another elite women\u2019s football environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If she adapts quickly, this could be a transfer that attracts plenty of attention over the next two seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
