Alexander-Arnold Claims His First Victim at Real Madrid, His Farewell Is Confirmed

Florentino Pérez has worked, together with his entire team at Real Madrid, to have the best squad possible in recent years. It is almost a fact that the team from the Spanish capital has the best squad in the world today. Now, with the arrival of a new star like Alexander-Arnold, everything seems to be even better.

However, the arrival of the Englishman doesn't come without consequences, and to make room for him, a departure is practically mandatory. In this sense, the main victim can't be other than Lucas Vázquez, who is likely to leave the white club. This decision is not only supported by the management but by all Madridists who know that it is already an unsustainable situation.

Lucas has been one of the most passionate players Real Madrid has had in recent years, feeling the colors like no one else. However, his quality and physique are no longer up to the standard of being in the best club in the world.

Arnold Claims His First Victim

It was known that the arrival of a player like Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid would mean a change in the squad. Unfortunately for the one many consider a soul in the locker room, now is the time to leave the club.

Lucas is 33 years old now and has had the opportunity to represent the club's youth academy in the first team since 2015. All Madridists have memorable moments of him in the Champions League or even in that legendary campaign where he earned the nickname "Cafucas." But, since the start of this campaign, things have not gone well, and it seems time to step aside.

The Brit represents a considerable increase in quality in the right-back position and with more than evident longevity.  Therefore, the Galician is one step away from saying goodbye to the club of his life.

He Must Say Goodbye in Style

There will be a sector of Madridists who surely consider Lucas a club legend. But there is no doubt that he deserves a grand farewell, and another Champions League would be ideal.
