Club career
Ignatyev's professional debut occurred in the Russian Professional Football League playing for Krasnodar-2 on 3 May 2016 against Chernomorets Novorossiysk.
His inaugural match for the senior team of Krasnodar took place on 27 July 2017 during the third qualifying round of the Europa League against Lyngby. In his first game in the Russian Premier League on 10 August 2017, Ignatyev netted a decisive late goal to secure a 3–2 triumph over Akhmat Grozny. Additionally, he scored his initial Europa League goal in a 3–2 win against Red Star Belgrade.
Following the reintegration of top scorer Fyodor Smolov into Krasnodar's main squad, Ignatyev was reassigned to the youth team. There, he maintained an impressive scoring record by registering 16 goals in 12 Under-21 matches and leading the 2017–18 UEFA Youth League with 10 goals by the winter break. He rejoined Krasnodar’s Premier League starting eleven on 10 December 2017, contributing a goal in a 3–1 victory over Amkar Perm.
On 28 December 2019, Ignatyev secured a contract with Rubin Kazan valid until May 2024. Subsequently, on 2 February 2022, he was loaned to Krylia Sovetov Samara for the remainder of that season, including an option for permanent transfer. His agreement with Rubin Kazan was mutually ended on 27 June 2022.
Ignatyev agreed to a one-year deal with Lokomotiv Moscow on 21 July 2022, which included an option to extend for an additional two years. A highlight of his tenure was scoring a hat-trick within just eleven minutes during a commanding 5–1 win over Orenburg on 28 August 2022. He left Lokomotiv in June 2023.
On 22 June 2023, Ignatyev joined Sochi, before parting ways by mutual consent on 14 January 2024.
On 29 June 2024, Armenian Premier League side Urartu acquired Ignatyev from Serbian club Železničar Pančevo. After tallying thirteen goals across nineteen appearances, he transferred to Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1 outfit JS Kabylie on 6 February 2025 but departed the club in August.
Returning to Russia on 30 August 2025, Ignatyev signed with Russian Premier League club Orenburg.
