Loic Bade is apparently a target for Chelsea, who are getting ready to make a move for the Sevilla defender during the next summer transfer window. The Blues really need defensive reinforcements, particularly at center-back, as the team failed to sign a player during the January transfer window.
Since coming to Stamford Bridge, Wesley Fofana has been beset by injuries. To cover for him, Trevoh Chalobah was called up from his loan at Crystal Palace, while Axel Disasi moved on loan to Aston Villa. This summer, Chelsea must undoubtedly bolster a number of crucial positions, with the top priority being center defense, goalie, and center forward.
According to the publication Fichajes, Chelsea is now looking to Spain for defensive options, and Bade is apparently one of their goals. The Premier League team is reportedly even preparing a bid of €30 million to acquire his services when the market reopens, according to the Spanish daily.
Chelsea set their sights on new La Liga star Loic Bade
Chelsea has taken notice of Bade’s strong performances, which have established him as one of La Liga’s top defenders. This summer, Sevilla will grudgingly entertain offers that are appropriate for the France international since they need to strengthen their financial position.
There are a number of Premier League teams that may contact Chelsea for Bade. He is being watched by Liverpool as a possible backline addition, according to TEAMtalk sources. Despite having meetings with Bade in January, Aston Villa is still pursuing him.
Bade is the most recent La Liga player Chelsea has been connected to, behind Jules Kounde and Ferran Torres. Although Chelsea has reportedly expressed interest in Bade, Marc Guehi is their preferred target.
