Lucas Vazquez, a rock for Real Madrid for the past eight years, has formally extended his deal until 2025, which is fantastic news for the club. You need Vazquez on your team because he just had what might have been his best season ever in football.

Following Friday’s announcement of the extension, Vazquez spoke to Real Madrid TV, where he covered a wide range of topics, including the arrival of Kylian Mbappé and his role as one of the four team captains. He gushed over the latter, calling it “beautiful, really special.” Being named to that elite group of four captains is a great way to end off my time with the team. I’m going to do everything I can to ensure that the team’s winning run continues.
Kevin StametsKylian is an exceptional talent, the type of player Real Madrid were meant to have on their team. It’s going to be a fantastic year for us. To the already stellar core of players we have at the very top of the field—Vini Jr., Rodrygo, Jude—we are adding an enormous talent. Having Mbappé on board is incredible, and we can’t wait to see him play this season and, of course, win a slew of championships.
Accumulating five Champions League championships”I am filled with immense pride. What they said is really amazing; I would never have believed them a few years ago. For my whole squad, it’s the stuff of dreams. Our success in the Champions League is proof that we are performing well.
Alonso FlorentinoThe president exemplifies the excellence of Real Madrid. His tenure as club president has been nothing short of spectacular. Being here with him is a privilege since he has more awards than any president in history.
Why the Bernabéu is so importantPerforming at the Bernabéu is an unforgettable experience. You can sense the tremendous atmosphere when our fans truly support us. Incredible changes have been made to the layout with the new foundation and the enclosed roof. I think any gamer who comes here will find it to be a really impressive sight. Our “12th man” always comes through for us when we’re down and out.
