He leaves "Real": a nearly 20-year journey comes to an end
Madrid's "Real" club is preparing to officially say goodbye to one of its most loyal and reliable players in recent years — Lucas Vázquez. According to renowned insider Fabrizio Romano, the 33-year-old Spanish defender will leave the club as a free agent at the end of the 2024/2025 season.
However, before that, Vázquez will participate in another important competition with the "whites" — he will help the team in the 2025 Club World Cup taking place in the USA.
The main reason for his departure is said to be the addition of Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold to the "Real" ranks. This transfer indicates the "whites" intention to completely renew their right wing.
A lifetime of loyalty
Lucas Vázquez is a product of the "Real" academy, having joined the club in 2007 at just 16 years old. His only break in the "madrileños" was during the 2014/2015 season when he was loaned to "Espanyol".
Vázquez participated in 398 official matches for "Real", scoring 38 goals and providing 73 assists to his teammates. These numbers speak for themselves: the player played a crucial role not only on the field but also in the team's internal environment.
The end of an era
Lucas Vázquez's departure feels like more than just saying goodbye to a player for "Real Madrid" — it seems like the end of an entire era. He participated in the club's successful and glorious years, witnessing numerous championships, European cups, and the most important matches.
As "Real" is shaping a new generation today, the departure of an experienced player like Vázquez, who embodies the spirit of the club, will certainly be noticeable.
