Lucas Vázquez (29 years old) took two joys on Sunday at La Cerámica, that of enjoying his first minutes (he entered at 68 ') of the season and that of living his 100th victory in the league with Real Madrid. The Galician, who missed the first day due to a muscle injury after which he needed to pick up pace, has become a centennial after 141 games, which gives a 70.92% of wins.
Curtis's begins to find his place again. Contract ends in 2021, But he still has his main ally in Zidane to continue in the club of his heart after next summer, a scenario that today they do not contemplate in the offices. To upset that idea, he needs precisely what has always accompanied him, that confidence from his coach. The French almost do not care about the signings, the states of form and the criticism: There is room for Lucas in his rotation policy. That is why it is, tied with Varane, the seventh player in whom he has trusted in the most games, 155, and the thirteenth who has put more minutes, 7,504.
The right side, another avenue of minutes for Lucas
This is how it is explained that when in these months, with the attack posts doubled and the need to make cash due to the coronavirus crisis, In the sports department, they thought about letting Lucas out, Zidane would transmit his desire to close the door. If he had to go, he would go, but it was not in the way. Quite the contrary: the technician sees in him a footballer of the most useful for work, sentimental involvement with the costumes and fans, and versatility.
This last factor became decisive for him to stay. He has changed agent, now his career is managed by Arturo Canales, and several clubs, especially the Premier, were interested in him. But Lucas picked up the glove of an extra life thrown by Zidane, discarded those suitors and added to his services his adaptation to the right back, a position in which he has managed 11 times as a professional. And that's how Zizou wants them: predisposed for everything.
