Amara Diouf attracted interest from Manchester City, among other top European clubs, due to his impressive talent at a young age. Despite the interest from Manchester City, as well as Chelsea and Barcelona, Diouf was initially promised to FC Metz because of their exclusive partnership with Génération Foot. However, a contractual issue allowed him to sign freely with Fenerbahçe upon reaching adulthood, with his contract running until 2026.
