Diop signed with Ipswich Town through the summer of 2030 after departing Fulham, the club announced.
Analysis:Diop represented Morocco at this summer's World Cup, playing all five matches as the team reached the quarterfinals and scoring in a group stage draw against the Netherlands. The center back has made 173 Premier League appearances across four years at West Ham and four seasons at Fulham, including 119 appearances and eight goals for the Hammers. He came through Toulouse's academy, captaining the club at age 20, and represented France at multiple youth levels, including the title winning 2016 U19 European Championship, before switching allegiance to Morocco this year. Diop is expected to add experience and physical presence to Ipswich Town's backline once he links up with the squad following the club's training camp in Spain.
