Playing for Serie A bottom side Benevento just since last January, almost 30-year old Malian international striker Cheick Diabaté, who so far scored 7 goals in 7 Italian league games played, stated: "People who didn't know me are surprised, of course, but I've always been scoring a lot, especially when I was in Bordeaux. My future? I'd like to settle in Italy. I'm fond of everything from this country: weather, food, and, of course, football". The player is still on a deal with Turkish side Osmanlispor until June 2019.
