Real Madrid legend Lucas Vázquez has officially completed his move to Bayer Leverkusen, signing as a free agent after 14 years with Los Blancos. The versatile Spanish defender underwent a secret medical and will put pen to paper on Tuesday.
The 34-year-old right-back brings a wealth of experience to the Bundesliga champions, having won an incredible 23 major trophies with Real Madrid, including five Champions League titles. Vázquez made over 400 appearances for the Spanish giants before departing in July 2025.
Known for his pace, crossing ability, and tactical versatility, Vázquez can operate effectively as both a right-back and winger. His reliability earned him the nickname “Lord Vázquez” among Madrid fans, particularly for his clutch performances in crucial matches.
In his final season with Real Madrid, the Curtis-born player featured in 52 matches across all competitions, contributing 2 goals and 7 assists. His 90.2% pass accuracy and defensive work rate made him a valuable squad player under Carlo Ancelotti.
Bayer Leverkusen has secured an experienced winner who brings leadership and Champions League pedigree. The move represents a fresh challenge for Vázquez as he seeks to add Bundesliga success to his already impressive trophy cabinet.
