French-born centre-back Kipre, 27, swept up the club’s player of the season awards last term but has received interest in his services this summer.
Clubs from France, Germany and Turkey, as well as Premier League new-boys Ipswich, are all tracking Kipre on a free transfer.
The defender – along with fellow star performers from last season, Alex Mowatt and Kyle Bartley – became unattached free agents at midnight as their contracts at The Hawthorns officially expired.
