Edgar Miguel Ié (European Portuguese: [ɛðˈɣaɾ ˈjɛ]; born 1 May 1994) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Turkish club Trabzonspor primarily as a central defender but also as a right back.

Club career[]

Barcelona[]

Born in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau, Ié joined Sporting CP's youth system in 2008, aged 14. In summer 2012, after concluding his development, he moved to FC Barcelona in Spain alongside teammate and compatriot Agostinho Cá.[3]

In Catalonia, Ié started playing with the B team in Segunda División. He made his official debut on 8 December 2012, playing ten minutes in a 1–1 home draw against Elche CF.[4]

Ié made his first and only competitive appearance for Barcelona's main squad on 3 December 2014, replacing Jérémy Mathieu for the last 27 minutes of a 4–0 win at SD Huesca in the last 32 of the Copa del Rey.[5] On 27 August 2015, he signed a three-year deal at Villarreal CF, being assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B.[6] He appeared moderately often in a season which ended with a play-off berth, being sent off alongside Anton Shvets on 3 April in a 1–0 away victory over Valencia CF Mestalla.[7]

Belenenses[]

On 26 December 2016, Ié returned to Lisbon, signing for C.F. Os Belenenses.[8] He made his Primeira Liga debut the following 27 January, playing the full 90 minutes of a 1–0 away defeat of Boavista FC.[9]

Lille[]

On 5 July 2017, Ié transferred to French club Lille OSC for 3 million, the highest transfer fee Belenenses ever received for a player.[10][11] He scored his first goal in Ligue 1 on 28 January 2018, helping the hosts beat RC Strasbourg Alsace 2–1 by heading home a corner kick from Anwar El Ghazi in injury time.[12]

Ié was loaned to FC Nantes also of the French top division in late January 2019.[13]

Trabzonspor[]

On 12 August 2019, Ié signed a three-year contract with Trabzonspor of the Turkish Süper Lig as part of the deal involving Yusuf Yazıcı.[14][15] He was loaned to Feyenoord four days later,[16][17] making his Eredivisie debut on the 18th in a 1–1 home draw against FC Utrecht.[18]

International career[]

Ié was initially selected by Portugal for the 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Championship,[19] but missed the tournament in Estonia due to injury. Eventually, he won 37 caps at youth level, including 12 for the under-21 team.

Ié first appeared with the full side on 10 November 2017, coming on as a substitute for Pepe for the last 34 minutes of the 3–0 friendly win over Saudi Arabia in Viseu.[20]

Personal life[]

Ié's twin brother, Edelino, is also a footballer. A midfielder, he too came through the youth teams at Sporting.[21]
