Liverpool are working hard on a deal to sign Loic Bade this summer, according to Le10sport.
The centre-back is having an excellent season for Lens, starting 16 of his side’s Ligue 1 matches and winning an average of 4.3 aerial duels per game.
Bade is still just 20 years of age and Liverpool are reportedly eyeing him up as a much-needed addition at the end of the season.
AC Milan are also mentioned as a rival for the young Frenchman’s signature.

There may be frustration to hear that Bade is more of a summer target than a January one, but it further suggests that no new signings will be coming in this month.
It increasingly looks as though Jurgen Klopp is willing to gamble on the centre-back options at his disposal, which is a decision that can only be properly assessed in May.
Bade certainly looks an exciting prospect and his aforementioned aerial prowess is something Liverpool are believed to be keen on in a potential new signing.
The Lens man represents both the present and the future, shining in a top league already, but also having time on his side.
