Liverpool FC could turn to 20-year-old central defender Loic Bade as the Merseysiders ongoing injury crisis could force Jurgen Klopp’s hand in using the transfer window to bring in additional options at Anfield.
Reports from Le10Sport claim that Jurgen Klopp’s side have maintained a strong interest in making a move for Bade, with the defensive prodigy also being scouted by the likes of AC Milan.
Following RC Lens’ promotion to top-flight football in France, Bade has established first-team regular credentials for Franck Haise’s outfit, recording 16 appearances for the Ligue 1 club in their quest to cement a mid-table finish.
Long-term injuries to both Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez have left the Anfield giants reeling in the midst of a severely depleted senior squad backline, even as reports suggest that the former is working his way to full fitness, with a chance of making a return to action as early as next month.
