Corrie Ndaba

Corrie Richard Ndaba (born 25 December 1999) is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back or left-back for Scottish Premiership club Kilmarnock.

[4] Upon signing the contract, Ipswich manager Paul Lambert said that because Ndaba was left-footed, he had a chance to make it at the club if he improved his physique.

Instead, he and teammate Bailey Clements were sent on loan to Hemel Hempstead Town for a month, where they were managed by former Ipswich player Sammy Moore.

[10] Ndaba made his first-team debut for Ipswich on 5 September 2020, featuring as a second-half substitute in a 3–0 home win over Bristol Rovers in the EFL Cup.

[13] Ndaba was one of several Ayr defenders described by manager David Hopkin as "embarrassing" following a 3–0 defeat to Dundee on 6 April.

[18] On 27 August, he signed a new two-year contract with Ipswich, extending his stay at the club until 2023 with the option of an additional one-year extension.

[19] Speaking to the East Anglian Daily Times, Ndaba said his loan move was necessary for experience; "I'm physically ready but there are a lot of things you need to learn.

[22] In total, he made 30 appearances in both his natural position of centre-back and at left-back, where he earned rave reviews,[23] and scored two goals.
