Cedric Kipre’s future at West Bromwich Albion has been up in the air for the longest time. The 24-year-old is now in his second season at the Hawthorns and once again finds himself on the periphery.
Kipre was frozen out by Slaven Bilic and Sam Allardyce in 2020/21, so he joined RSC Charleroi (February 2021 – June 2021) on loan to get first-team football. Since returning from Belgium, the Ivorian defender has been in and around the matchday squad under Valerien Ismael but has only made limited appearances.
He played a full 90 minutes in West Brom’s 2-2 draw with Bournemouth (August 6) at the start of the season but hasn’t played in the Championship since.
