Alvaro Djalo has been loaned to Al Gharafa SC, a club based in Doha, competing in the Qatar Stars League. He will remain with the Qatari club until the end of the season. The agreement includes a non-binding purchase clause. Djalo has made 28 appearances for Athletic Club in the 2024/25 season and will join former La Liga players Joselu Mato and Sergio Rico at Al Gharafa.

Marca reports on Athletic Club's efforts to find a new destination for Djaló. Athletic Club initially sought a new destination for Djaló in Portugal, where he had previously made a good impression at Braga. However, the potential move to a Portuguese club never materialized.

The Athletic club has granted permission for Álvaro Djaló to travel to Doha to advance conversations for a potential loan to Al Gharafa SC. Álvaro Djaló arrived in Doha, preparing to join Al Gharafa, as announced by the club on social media. Djaló was seen wearing the team's scarf, although the loan has not yet been finalized by either party. If Djaló agrees, he will play on loan at Al Gharafa this season. Transfermarkt currently estimates his market worth at 5.00m euros.
