Liverpool and Aston Villa are said to be fighting side-by-side for the January add-on.
Arne Slot’s team is climbing high to the top of the Premier League and still has a real chance of winning four places in the table this season. Meanwhile, Aston Villa saw a slight decline due to their participation in the UEFA Champions League.
However, both teams have one thing in common: interest in the 24-year-old from Spain, who continues to stand out from the rest and who may move to the Premier League this winter.
Aston Villa and Liverpool want to sign Sevilla defender Loic Bade
According to Sports witnessAston Villa continue to try to sign Sevilla star Loic Bade this month but face stiff competition from Liverpool and Newcastle United.
The France Under-21 international is yet to make his senior debut but was named on the bench twice during the UEFA Nations League in October. Bade has played 16 times for Los Rojiblancos so far this season.
According to additional information from Fabrica RomanoAston Villa entered into talks with Sevilla on Tuesday and now want to make the transfer permanent. Liverpool and Newcastle are yet to act on each other’s rumours.
Bade is 180 cm tall and has been a standout player for Sevilla in recent seasons. This season, he established a solid partnership with Serbian defender Nemanja Gudelj.
Bade already had a brief taste of life in England, loaning him to Nottingham Forest in 2022. His stay lasted only four months and the 24-year-old returned to his then club Rennes, without making a single appearance in the first team.
“It was the coach’s responsibility,” he said in 2023. “He had different preferences in his choices and I respected him. I don’t know what would have happened because I didn’t get a chance to play, but I will accept the fact that I am important here and now.
IN FourFourTwo viewVillans would make a smart move for Bade given his age and experience in La Liga. The 24-year-old even scored against Manchester United for Sevilla in the 2023 UEFA Europa League.
Aston Villa will be back in the Premier League this week when they host Everton on Wednesday. Click here to find out how to watch the match LIVE.
