Ikepazu began his professional career back in July 2013 when he joined Watford in the Championship. From there, he was loaned out to places like Crewe Alexandra and Doncaster Rovers, where he made a commendable number of appearances and scored a fair few goals. However, perhaps his most distinguished time was when he transferred to Cambridge United in August 2016. Over two seasons there, he made 55 appearances and netted an impressive 15 goals.
The striker then moved north of the border to Scottish side Hearts in July 2018. He had notable spells there before moving back to England in 2020 to play for Wycombe Wanderers. A year later, he had a stint at Middlesbrough for a price around £1m before being loaned out to Cardiff City.
In 2022, the forward made a move to Turkish Süper Lig side Konyaspor before returning to England and joining League Two side Port Vale. Ikpeazu's talent and commitment saw him return to the Scottish Premiership in July 2024, where he now plays for St Johnstone, making no first team appearances as of yet in the 2024-2025 season.
A player of Ikpeazu's calibre and experience brings a considered amount of depth and necessitated finesse to any team he joins. It remains to be seen what the future holds for this seasoned, travelling footballer.
