Ali Ibrahim Kébé Baye (born December 24, 1978), commonly known as Ibra Kébé, is a Senegalese footballer, currently playing for FC Anzhi Makhachkala.
In 2002, Kébé signed for Spartak Moscow and made his Champions League debut in the away defeat to FC Basel.[1]
Despite a relatively bright start to his Spartak career, soon Kébé fell out of favour at the Russian club. The Senegalese defender left Spartak after two seasons with the club. He then played for Spartak Nizhny Novgorod and, after their relegation from the Russian First Division, for Anzhi Makhachkala. In January 2009, Kébé was expected to sign for the newly-promoted Premier League side FC Rostov, but the deal fell through because of a serious knee injury.[2]
His younger brother Pape Maguette Kebe played for FC Rubin Kazan.
