- Vazquez leaves Real Madrid after almost 18 years
- الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز and Saudi teams interested
- Decision expected later in summer transfer window
Vazquez ended his long spell with the Los Blancos and is weighing up multiple offers for the next stage of his career, according to a report from AS.u0026nbsp;The Spanish veteran, who made 402 appearances and won 23 titles with Madrid, is considering proposals from teams in England, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, while Juventus are also said to have approached him. Former team Espanyol have also shown interest, though the player’s preference is to move abroad rather than face his old club.
The 34-year-old, who rose through Madrid’s youth academy, leaves as one of the club’s most decorated players with five Champions League titles, five Club World Cups, four La Liga titles, and more. Vazquez is seeking a contract for two or three years that offers both competitive football and family stability. Despite lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia, he remains open to another European challenge, similar to former team-mate Luka Modric’s recent move to AC Milan. Vazquez’s versatility and experience continue to attract clubs looking for proven quality and leadership.
Vazquez, 34, bid an emotional farewell to Madrid recently, with team-mates Kylian Mbappe and Andriy Lunin cutting their holidays short to be present at the ceremony.
“Today, after more than 400 matches, it’s time to say goodbye to the club of my life. But I leave with peace of mind knowing I gave it my all. I’ve always been aware of the responsibility and privilege that comes with wearing this badge. I’ve enjoyed every match, training session, trip, and if there’s one thing this journey has taught me, it’s that no one should ever tell you that you can’t achieve something,” Vazquez said in a video announcing his exit.
Vazquez is expected to spend the coming weeks considering his future, with major interest from England and the Middle East. No immediate announcement is expected, as the player prioritises a move that fits both his sporting goals and family life. Any developments are likely to take place as the summer transfer window progresses.
