Liverpool handed blow in pursuit of 24-year-old Olympics 2024 silver medalist

Loic Bade wants to take time into a decision to leave Sevilla soon amid interest from top clubs such as Liverpool. 
According to Football-Espana, Loic Bade wants to stay at Sevilla for the time being as he does not want to rush an exit. The defender has plenty of interest from top clubs following an impressive first season in Spain, with Liverpool one of those keeping close tabs. 

Loic Bade in no rush to decide the future
Unlike the earlier days, player commitment has become a seasonal thing, with many top stars increasingly uncertain about an extended stay at one particular club. This is probably the case more for second-fiddle sides, with some top teams always looking at considerable talents to come into their squad. 

Loic Bade might be the rare anomaly in this modern day and age, as the defender wishes to stay at Sevilla. After an impressive first season with the Spanish side, Bade did have plenty of interest from top clubs during the window and still has a pack chasing for his signature ahead of future windows. 

Liverpool is one of those sides keen, with Arne Slot probably thinking about shoring up his backline in future windows. However, Bade is in no rush to leave Sevilla, and committed to the club as he signed a new deal a year after joining the club. He had interest last January from Tottenham, but chose to continue with Sevilla as he was uninterested in a move to the Premier League then. 

His renewal does give Sevilla the option to cash in for a significant fee in the future, as, unlike some other stars, they have the security with Bade. The 24-year-old Olympics 2024 silver medalist with France will wait for the season to end before deciding his next step rather than opening up to speculation about an immediate departure in January. 

Liverpool looking for new defenders
Liverpool did not sign a host of players in the summer window, with Federico Chiesa the only outfield player to arrive. There were talks of Arne Slot wanting a new defender in place, and they did have plenty of links in the window, but none that materialised. 

As the season has progressed, Arne Slot does not seem convinced by Jarell Quansah, and he remains on he fence for Ibrahima Konate. There are further doubts about the futures of Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez, which makes the need to sign a centre-back even more rather imperative in future windows.
