Lucas Vazquez parted ways with Real Madrid in July after a decade-long tenure at Santiago Bernabeu.
After graduating from the Real Madrid academy in 2010, Vazquez started his senior career with their reserve teams, followed by a season-long loan to Espanyol.
Vazquez returned to the club, receiving his first-team debut in 2015, and the rest was history. The Spaniard has won a total of 23 trophies with Los Blancos, including five UEFA Champions League titles and four La Liga titles. He registered 402 appearances for the La Liga giants, while scoring 38 goals and providing 73 assists.
Since his departure from Real Madrid, Vazquez has yet to join a new club, and now reports have suggested that the 34-year-old can potentially reunite with one of his former Los Blancos teammates, Cristiano Ronaldo, at the Saudi Pro League.
While speaking to Arabic outlet EremNews, Vazquez mentioned that he has not made a decision about his future yet and said,

Espanyol were also interested in bringing back Vazquez to the club. However, the Spanish star reportedly doesn’t want to play in Spain out of respect for Real Madrid. He has also received reported offers from Qatar, Premier League, and Serie A sides.
