# West Brom: Fans react to Cedric Kipre update

**Slaven Bilic has [indicated](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/west-brom-transfer-news-bilic-19347195) that, as Branislav Ivanovic, Semi Ajayi and Dara O’Shea are all ahead of Cedric Kipre in the pecking order at West Bromwich Albion, the latter is likely to leave the club on loan in January.**

23-year-old Kipre was signed in September from Wigan Athletic, but he has so far made just [two](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/cedric-kipre/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/364827) appearances for the Baggies, both in the League Cup. Despite West Brom struggling at the wrong end of the table in the Premier League, it does not look like he will feature more regularly any time soon.

Bilic has now suggested that Kipre will leave on a short-term basis in a couple of months, and this has attracted plenty of attention from the Baggies supporters. They appear to be questioning why he was even signed in the first place if there was no intention of playing him.

They took to Twitter to share their thoughts.

> Should never have signed him. Sell him on free some wages and then get someone who will play. Same with players like peltier not playing
