Why would Diabolico want Ryan?

I was thinking about Ryan's backstory. Where Mitchill, young Dana, and young Ryan were in a car accident. With Ryan clinging to Mitchill's legs. Diabolico comes in spirit form and offers to save Ryan if Mitchill gives him to him. When Ryan falls , Mitchill is forced to agree. Diabolico saves Ryan and tells Mitchill that he won't see him again until he turns 21.

Now their is the obvious question of why Diabolico's spirit was able to do this when he was trpped with the other demons at the time. But thats not why I made this thread.

My question here is why Diabolico made the deal with Mitchill in the first place? Why did he want Ryan? We don't k now if Mitchill was already working with Lightspeed to create a force to fight the demons. If he was, that could have been a motivation. But it seems more likely that Mitchill was working as a fire fighter. Perhaps the demon had knowledge of the future somehow. But its all still murky. There had to have been something special about Ryan. Unless Diabolico just did this with many others that we didn't see on screen.
