Jonathan "Johny" Diba Musangu (born 12 October 1997) is a Congolese-born English professional footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for the League One club Rochdale.

Early life

Diba was born in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and moved to Rochdale in England at a young age. He attended St Cuthbert's RC High School with whom he reached the final of the English National Schools Cup as a year 7 in 2009 with a team that also included players such as Connor Ronan, Kisimba Kisimba and Axel Tuanzebe.[3][4][5]

Club career

Diba joined the youth set up of his local side Rochdale at the age of 11.[6] Diba was promoted to the first team squad at the start of the 2014–15 season, attending preseason training in Tenerife less than a month after completing his GCSEs. He made his debut for Rochdale at the age of 16 on 16 August 2014, replacing an injured Josh Lillis 60 minutes into a League One match with Chesterfield at the Proact Stadium.[7] He received a yellow card for handling outside of the penalty area and conceded one goal from the penalty spot in what ended as a 2–1 defeat. He signed his first professional contract on 18 November 2014.[8]

International career

In the 2011–12 season Diba attended two England U15 training camps. In November 2012 Diba was called up to a two-day England under-16 goalkeeper training camp at St George's Park National Football Centre.[9]
