Speaking for the first time of the decision, Diallo told the EADT: “My record with Ipswich speaks for itself. Last season I played in every game prior to getting injured in December - and we lost just three times.
"If I had stayed fit all season I am sure I would still be an Ipswich player next season.”
With Diallo set to become a free agent, supporters may wonder where he will end up, the answer is that Diallo's agent is attempting to fix his client up with another Championship club.
"I want to stay in England and am prepared to bide my time. It was very disappointing to be told that I was not required any more by Ipswich." added the Guinea international.
"A decision was made and in football you have to take it on the chin and get on with life. The manager paid a nice tribute to me that I appreciated and in some ways I am looking forward to a new challenge."
Despite being old he was not wanted any more by Town boss Joe Royle, Diallo admitted he enjoyed himself at Ipswich: “I wish Ipswich all the best for the new season.
"My time at Portman Road has been a very happy one. It is such a shame I suffered two long-term injuries or I am sure I would have enjoyed a longer stay.”
