Born in Dakar, Diop played for ASC Diaraf and Vevey Sports in Senegal before spending three seasons in Switzerland Neuchatel Xamax and Grasshoppers. In 2002, he moved to Lens in France, before his famous winning goal for Senegal against holders France at the FIFA World Cup finals.
In 2004 in Senegal international joined Fulham and established himself as a Premier League force, earning the nickname ‘The Wardrobe’ for his strong midfield play. He moved to Harry Redknapp’s Portsmouth in 2007, helping Pompey win the FA Cup in his first season with the club, before spending a year in Greece with AEK Athens where he won the Greek Cup and appeared seven times in the UEFA Europa League and had been an important member of the Senegal squad for a decade, making 63 senior appearances and scoring eleven goals.

Standing at 6'5, the imposing Diop became Sam Allardyce's ninth summer signing after completing a successful trial period at Chadwell Heath. Although having secured his services, the Hammers then had to wait until he was granted a work permit at a London hearing.
Diop made his Championship debut for the Hammers against Crystal Palace in a 2-2 draw on 1 October 2011. He scored his first and only goal against Barnsley on 17 December 2011. His goal proved to be the winner in a 1–0 win.
Although not a member on the day, Diop celebrated on the pitch with the team that won promotion via the play-off final on 19 May. On 30 June 2012, after 16 appearances and one goal, Diop was released at the expiry of his contract. Diop retired in January 2013 after a short spell with Birmingham City.

ANDY CARROLL
Born: 6 January 1989, Gateshead
Signed: Liverpool (loan)
Date: 30 August 2012
Permanent signing: 19 June 2013
Fee: £15m
Debut: 1 September 2012, Fulham 2012 (H)
Last game: 27 February 2019,
Manchester City (A)
Released: 30 June 2019
Andy Carroll experienced every emotion in Claret and Blue during his seven seasons with the Club, from the highs of scoring hat-tricks, vital goals and the sensational final season at the Boleyn Ground, to the lows of devastating injuries and disappointing defeats.
Carroll burst into the Newcastle United first-team at the age of 17 making his debut as a replacement for future Hammer Nolberto Solano in a UEFA cup victory over Palermo on 2 November 2006, an appearance that made him the youngest-ever player to represent the Tyneside club in Europe.
A six-month loan spell with Championship side Preston North End before returning to St James’ Park and forced his way into the Magpies starting XI, and scored on his full home debut with a towering header against the Hammers in a 2-2 Premier League draw on 10 January 2009.
Completed a record breaking £35m move to Liverpool on 31 January 2010, making him the most-expensive English footballer in history. However, he was unable to fit into new Anfield boss Brendan Rogers’ plans.
Carroll arrived from Liverpool on loan on 30 August 2012 as one of football’s most-feared forwards, making an eye-catching debut in a 3-0 home Premier league victory over Fulham two days later. His outstanding form during his initial loan spell led to an England call-up for the World Cup qualifier against San Marino and a 73rd minute substitution led to his only cap whilst with the Hammers and chants of ‘We want you to stay’ during the final-day 4-2 Premier League win over Reading.
The pony-tailed centre-forward earned a permanent move, only for injuries to restrict Carroll to just 32 appearances over the next two seasons. Having worked hard to return to fitness, he was an important member of Slaven Bilic’s record-breaking squad during the Farewell Boleyn campaign, scoring nine times, including an unforgettable hat-trick against Arsenal. After moving to London Stadium, Carroll scored twice in the official opening fixture against Italian giants Juventus, before netting one of west Ham’s all-time great goals, with a scoring scissor-kick to double the Irons’ advantage in an eventual 3-0 win over Crystal Palace in January 2017.
Older, wiser, fitter and stronger, the striker was still hitting the target after leaving East London in June 2019 for former club Newcastle, West Bromwich Albion, Reading and French sides Amiens and FC Girondins de Bordeaux
