It's over, official statement and he doesn't renew with Real Madrid, Goodbye to a Legend

One of the most criticized players this season is about to leave the white club after a decade wearing Real Madrid's jersey.

Lucas Vázquez has been talked about a lot this season. But not precisely to say good things about his performance, quite the opposite.

That circumstance made him assume a starting position at right-back that he hasn't been able to keep under control, forcing Carlo Ancelotti to trust Fede Valverde to solve that issue. Given his lackluster performance, in addition to the plans devised in the Valdebebas offices regarding that position, Lucas Vázquez's renewal is becoming increasingly complicated.

This has been revealed by the information from the newspaper As, a sports outlet that recalls that Lucas Vázquez is "halfway out" of Real Madrid for the next season. The latest doubts being handled among the white leadership regarding that renewal would be clarified after the Club World Cup, the newspaper states. Not only the direct opinion of the white leaders would have much to do in that regard.

The changes that have been precipitated over the right-back position, given Trent Alexander-Arnold's official announcement about his future as a Liverpool player, distance him even more. Unless there is a notable turn of events, Lucas Vázquez wouldn't remain in Santiago Bernabéu locker room for the next season.

Lucas Vázquez: his future is practically decided

Lucas Vázquez's track record, although impeccable throughout his time as a Real Madrid footballer, wouldn't have been enough to earn him another year on the team. The bad impressions he has left this season, especially in the most important matches of the season in which he has participated, are one of the reasons for his departure.

The other is the need to reform and carry out the generational change in the defensive line. The leaders led by Florentino Pérez have postponed that modification of the morphology of the merengue defense for too long, an action requested by Carlo Ancelotti for a year and a half now... and now, in 2025, is the ideal time to make the necessary changes.

One of those changes is the departure of Lucas Vázquez himself. The reform of the right-back position would include the arrival of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Santiago Bernabéu locker room, but not at the expense of Dani Carvajal, who has a contract until the summer of 2026. Lucas Vázquezis, in that sense, the affected one: his performance offers the main reason why he is marked to leave the first team.

In this situation, Lucas Vázquez is practically out of Real Madrid. The last doubt about his continuity is in the Club World Cup, since the sports management could extend his contract for several weeks, making it end in July... to ensure his participation in that FIFA tournament and bid him farewell in style at the end of that competition.
