Loïc Badé has signed for Bayer Leverkusen on a busy day for the club officials. Der Werkself finalized Amine Adli’s transfer to Bournemouth and signed Claudio Echeverri on a loan deal before announcing the latest deal for their defensive department.

According to multiple reports, Sevilla will receive a €29 million transfer fee, without the €4 million add-ons as part of the deal. The 25-year-old center-back made his debut for the French national team in the 2-0 victory over Germany in Stuttgart.

Including his role in the Europa League triumph back in 2023, Badé performed at the top level for Sevilla for two and a half years. He’ll wear the number 5 at Leverkusen, while Echeverri is the new number 9.
