After leaving Real Madrid, Lucas Vázquez found himself in a difficult situation, as he initially did not receive any offers, forcing him to train alone at home for 7 weeks to maintain his physical fitness, while waiting for an opportunity to return to the field.

The opportunity finally came from Bayer Leverkusen, but at a very complicated time, as the club was going through a period of technical turmoil following the dismissal of coach Erik ten Hag in one of the fastest dismissals in the history of the Bundesliga. The team was struggling both technically and morally, making Vazquez's task seem more challenging from day one.

Despite this, the Spanish player demonstrated strong character and succeeded in managing the pressure, becoming one of the highest-rated players in his team's lineup this season.

His remarkable performance brought his name back to the forefront, even prompting a journalist to ask him about the possibility of considering a return to Spain's national team for the World Cup. Vázquez confidently affirmed that this is a goal he is striving for.

Recently, Vázquez translated his statements into actions by leading his team to deliver a heroic performance against Olympiacos, which qualified them for the Round of 16 in the UEFA Champions League, giving Bayer Leverkusen fans a moment of relief after a difficult period.

Thus, Vázquez finally found the place where he regains his shine, amidst crowds cheering his name and believing in his ability to write a new chapter in his career.
