Newcastle United vying for La Liga defender with Liverpool
Interest in Loic Bade Grows
Sevilla faced a challenge in holding onto Loic Bade this summer, and the task is expected to become even tougher in 2025. Premier League giants Liverpool have shown significant interest in the 24-year-old central defender, but they are not alone in monitoring his progress in Andalusia.
Newcastle United Joins the Race
According to transfer specialist Graeme Bailey, Newcastle United has entered the race to secure the signature of Loic Bade. The defender could potentially depart Sevilla as early as January, with several clubs eyeing his talents.
Bailey revealed, “Bade has been in exceptional form this season, attracting interest from numerous clubs. Newcastle is among those clubs looking to bolster their defensive options, with Bade being one of the top targets.”
Increased Valuation Expected
Sevilla had set an asking price of €20 million for Bade during the summer transfer window. However, with growing interest in the player over the past few months, it is anticipated that Sevilla will raise their valuation for the talented defender in 2025.
