Mamadou Diop, a 26-year-old goalkeeper from Grenoble Foot 38 who holds both Mauritanian and Senegalese citizenship, is set to sign a four-year contract with AJ Auxerre. OGC Nice and Stade Brestois had also pursued the player for a long time, but Auxerre was the most convincing. The transfer fee for the Mauritanian international, who has 7 caps for his country, is estimated to be between €1.5 million and €2.5 million. This amount is a record for a Ligue 2 goalkeeper in a transfer between French clubs. Diop joined Grenoble in July 2022 and has a current Transfermarkt market value of €1.50m.
