About
Cedric Kipre is an Ivorian defender who plays for Ipswich Town. Born in Paris in December 1996, he came through the Paris Saint-Germain academy before moving to England with Leicester City, then rebuilt his career in Scotland with Motherwell, where strong displays earned a move to Wigan Athletic in 2018. He went on to join West Bromwich Albion for around £1 million and spent a loan spell at Cardiff City, racking up roughly 180 Championship appearances before a transfer to French side Stade Reims. Kipre initially arrived at Portman Road on loan from Reims, impressing at centre-back across 35 games and scoring three goals, including the opener in a 3-1 derby win over Norwich City, which prompted Ipswich to make the deal permanent. A senior Ivory Coast international, he is contracted at Ipswich until June 2029 on a reported weekly wage of around £18,000.
