Alan Nixon @reluctantnicko Hull. Centre half target is Cedric Kipre at Motherwell. Might be something online or in paper. Later.
To save everyone having to Google... 21 year old centre back Cédric Kipré was born in Paris, but currently plays internationally for the Ivory Coast U23's. He went through the PSG academy, before signing for Leicester in 2014, they released him in 2017 and following a successful trial, he joined Motherwell where he was first choice centre back last season (he's 6 ft 3").
He looks like he is an old school, physical stopper, looks a hard man as well. We haven't really had a dirty pairing at the back in a long time. Combining Onuoha and Kipre would be a fearsome pairing, maybe not the most skilful but would be good for set pieces and corners.
I like to see two dirty bastards playing centre halves. It scares the living **** out of most of these soft lad forwards that play now.
Bid rejected for Kipre Hull City have tested Motherwell’s resolve with a bid for defender Cedric Kipre. Unfortunately for the Tigers, according to STV, the offer has been rejected from the Scottish club.
