Tottenham target dismisses interest in Spurs' links
Loic Bade isn't letting transfer chatter derail his focus. Despite swirling speculation linking him to Tottenham Hotspur, the defender remains firmly committed to Sevilla.
Since joining the Spanish side in January 2023, Bade has been a revelation. Sevilla liked what they saw during his loan spell so much that they made the move permanent last summer.
This season, the 24-year-old has been nothing short of a defensive stalwart, anchoring Sevilla's backline with finesse. With his standout performances, he's even caught the eye of those in charge of the French national team, Les Blues.
Reports in January hinted at Spurs' interest in the center-back, causing a stir at Sevilla. While a move didn't come to fruition then, Bade openly welcomed the attention, relishing the prospect of joining a prestigious club like Tottenham, per Estadio Deportivo.

However, Bade is growing tired of the constant speculation. When quizzed again about Spurs' interest, he swiftly shut down the conversation, reaffirming his satisfaction at Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium.
Speaking to Marca, he said, "I'm comfortable, I'm working well, I'm trying to progress… I'm at Sevilla, I don't know why you're talking about Tottenham."
It appears Tottenham has shifted their sights elsewhere since January, with Bade no longer featuring in their transfer plans. Names like Tosin Adarabioyo, Riccardo Calafiori, and Piero Hincapie seem to be atop Postecoglou's wishlist for center-back reinforcements come summer.
For now, Bade remains a vital cog in Sevilla's defensive machinery, fully focused on continuing his upward trajectory with the Andalusian outfit. With his talent and determination, he's poised to make even bigger waves in the seasons to come.
