Kipre Zunon: Azam FC Re-Sign Ivorian Winger from MC Algiers in Confirmed Move
Azam FC have completed the signing of Ivorian left winger Kipre Zunon from MC Algiers in a permanent transfer dated 2026-07-05, returning the 26-year-old to Tanzania after a season in Algerias top flight. The deal has been registered with an undisclosed fee (listed as ?), while Zunons current market value stands at 350k.
The move marks a fresh stint at Azam FC for Zunon, who was on the books of the Tanzanian club before joining MC Algiers on 2024-07-09. His contract details at Azam FC, including its end date, have not been made public, leaving open the possibility that he could become a free agent when that agreement expires. For now, he is confirmed as an Azam FC player, with the transfer completed and processed.
Zunons switch takes him out of Algerias Ligue 1, where MC Algiers compete, and places him back in Tanzania, where Azam FC play in a competition recorded as N/A in the available data. It nonetheless represents a confirmed move abroad for the Yopougon-born attacker, who has now built a career spanning clubs in Cote dIvoire, Tanzania and Algeria.
Born on 03 Sep 1999 in Yopougon, Zunon is listed as an attack-minded left winger who prefers his right foot, giving Azam a profile that can operate inverted on the flank. He holds Ivorian nationality, with no second nationality recorded, and is in what are typically considered peak years for an attacking player, with his age calculated at 26.
The contract information supplied does not specify a start date beyond the transfer registration of 2026-07-05, nor an expiry date, and there is no indication of a release clause or option. That lack of disclosed end date means it is not yet clear when he might next be in a position to move as a free agent.
Zunons market value has fluctuated over the last 18 months while attached to MC Algiers. It climbed from 250,000 EUR in early 2025 to 400,000 EUR by mid-2025, remained at that level later in the year, and then eased to 350,000 EUR by March and again in June 2026. The latest valuation of 350k is carried into his return to Azam FC.
Before his initial spell in Tanzania, Zunon played for SOL FC d’Abobo in Cote dIvoire, a step that preceded his first move to Azam FC during the 202223 season. That path has taken him from domestic Ivorian football to East Africa and then North Africa, and now back to Tanzania, underlining a career built entirely outside Europe to date.
No recent match details or seasonal appearance statistics are provided in the current dataset, so his precise on-field contribution at MC Algiers and Azam FC in recent campaigns cannot be quantified here. What is clear, however, is that his performances were sufficient to sustain him in Algerias top tier and to retain a six-figure market value through successive updates.
If Zunons second spell with Azam FC is consistent with his rising profile and valuation over the last two years, the move could further enhance his reputation as a reliable Ivorian winger operating abroad and leave him well placed for future opportunities when his undisclosed contract eventually nears its conclusion.
