Sevilla have released a statement over the imminent transfer of Loic Bade, who had his loan stint at Nottingham Forest cut short.
The 22-year-old struggled to cement a place in Steve Cooper's side after arriving on loan from Rennes. His spell at the City Ground came to an end after failing to make an appearance.
Having completed a medical earlier this week, Sevilla hold the option to make his transfer permanent in the summer. In a statement released by the club, it read: "Sevilla FC and Stade Rennais FC have reached a principle of agreement for the loan until the end of the season with the option of purchase of 22-year-old central defender Loïc Badé, born in Sèvres, France on April 11, 2000.
