Let's make this birthday one to remember.

39 years old (Born on May 11, 1986)

Happy Birthday, Abou Diaby! The midfield maestro who joined Arsenal back in 2006 and dazzled us with silky skills, powerful runs, and unforgettable goals. Your ability to glide past defenders made football look effortless—though your knees might disagree!

From bossing the Premier League pitches at Emirates Stadium to proudly representing France since 2007, you've given fans countless memorable moments. Injuries may have tested you repeatedly—but hey, even superheroes need a break sometimes.

Here's wishing you fewer ice packs and more celebrations this year! May your birthday be injury-free (for once) and filled with laughter as timeless as your talent.
