Loïc Badé has credited former Sevilla sporting director Monchi for helping him escape a difficult spell at Nottingham Forest. The French defender joined the Premier League side on loan from Stade Rennais in September 2022 but failed to make a single appearance under manager Steve Cooper, leading Badé to question his abilities before leaving the club.
Monchi subsequently signed Badé on loan for Sevilla in January 2023, where the defender revived his career and won the Europa League. Badé later joined Sevilla permanently before moving to Bayer Leverkusen in 2025, describing Monchi's intervention as that of a savior during a critical career phase.
