The attacker came to Como at Real Betis in January and immediately hit the ground.
He said to the Como website: “No, the truth is that I had not imagined to start like this. Of course it was where I wanted and hoped, but I was also aware that this is a difficult competition and that the first impact could have been complicated.
“Thanks to my teammates and the technical staff, I immediately adapted well.”
Diao added about the influence of Como coach Cesc Fabregas: “I spoke to Fàbregas, who explained the project, the vision and what he had in mind for me and for the development of the team.
“It was very important to talk to him directly; after that chat I no longer had any doubts and I chose Como.”
