Liverpool are showing an interest in Loic Bade.

The Reds want to secure a centre-half in January as they deal with long term injuries to Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez.

The latter, along with Joel Matip, has always been injury prone, and Liverpool want another defender to compete with those players.

And according to French outlet Le10Sport, Bade is the latest the club is running the rule over.

They are hoping to find an affordable deal in January, but it is unclear if Lens will sell on the cheap in January.

This may be another deal that does not happen until the summer, given current Serie A leaders AC Milan are also interested.
