Nottingham Forest supporters have responded to Loic Bade's imminent exit as he prepares to join Sevilla on loan for the rest of the season.
The Rennes defender initially joined Forest in the summer on a season-long loan but struggled to force his way into Steve Cooper's side. Given the uncertainty of his future at the City Ground, talks were initiated with Sevilla and a move looks set to be confirmed in the coming days.
Bade is currently in Spain to complete medical tests and sign his contract which includes an option for Sevilla to buy the player.

Here is how the Forest faithful responded to the latest transfer news...
Barry Griffiths: "Another question as to why we signed him in the 1st place..."
Elbosquenffc: "Strange one. Decent CB with pace to burn, arguably better than the CBs who have been getting game time."
Sharpy: "Can someone fill me in on why we bring Loic Bade in. Yet never played him once then just got rid of him? I'm baffled."
Fishman36: "Didn’t see a lot of this player but what I did he looked good. Strange he didn’t get ahead of Worrall, Cook and Boly."
Haaris Ashraf: "Good enough for Sevilla but somehow wasn’t good enough for us."
Natasha: "I mean was there any point to this loan or?"
Hugh Herring: "Watch him go and do a Rafa Mir. At least we got to see how bad Mir was in English football, Bade didn’t even get a chance."
Totty: "Watch this lad get sold for £50m in the next couple years."
ForestAllOverPodcast: "Hopefully he doesn’t turn out to be brilliant like a Saliba from Arsenal."
Morty: "Bloke didn't play a single game for us and getting a move to Sevilla."
Speedy: "What an odd piece of business this was."
Reagy: "You just know he'll go Sevilla and smash it up."
