Krépin Diatta was not retained by AS Monaco after last season. Despite a successful 2026 World Cup on an individual level, the Senegalese player received no concrete offers for several months.

His agent reveals that this situation even worried the Senegalese executive, turning his transfer into a real state affair. The pressure on the player's shoulders was enormous.

Finally, Diatta found an exit in England. He committed to Watford, a second-division club, until the end of the current season.
