Pape Diakhaté (born June 21, 1984 in Dakar) is a Senegalese professional football (soccer) player, currently with AS Nancy.
Diakhaté has been at Nancy since his youth, and made his Ligue 2 debut on October 20, 2001, playing the first half of the 2-0 win over LB Châteauroux. Originally a left-back and capable of playing as a wide midfielder, he is recognised mainly as a centre-back.
He played 25 league matches the following season, and has appeared regularly for the club, although his 2003-04 season was severely disrupted by injury.
2004-05 brought Diakhaté favourable recognition, winning a place in France Football's team of the season and also a full international call-up from Senegal. After Nancy's promotion to Ligue 1 in 2005, Diakhaté was also part of the Senegalese team that finished fourth in the 2006 African Cup of Nations.
