Dynamo Kiev has entered negotiations with Wolfsberger AC to acquire Cheick Mamadou Diabaté after the player's internal profile was approved. Wolfsberger AC is unwilling to sell Diabaté for less than 2 million euros, and it is reported that Dynamo Kiev is willing to pay this amount. The negotiations are ongoing, and an agreement could be reached soon if both parties agree on the terms.

Dynamo Kyiv is considering 22-year-old Ivorian defender Cheikh Diabaté, who plays for the Austrian club Wolfsberger, as an option to strengthen their defense. The 'white-blues' are prepared to meet the two million euro asking price for the player but have not yet submitted a formal offer, as a final decision on the center-back candidate has not been made. Diabaté joined Wolfsberger in February 2024 and his contract runs until 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is estimated to be €800k.
