Real Madrid have announced that midfielder Lucas Vazquez has signed a contract extension at the Bernabeu keeping him at the club until 2021.

The 25-year-old has been used regularly under manager Zinedine Zidane after making his debut under the guidance of Rafa Benitez last season in September.

‘Real Madrid C.F. and Lucas Vazquez have agreed to the extension of the player’s contract, which sees him linked to the club until June 30, 2021,’ the club wrote in an official statement.

‘On Thursday at 1:30pm, Lucas Vazquez will appear before the media in the press room at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.’

The Spanish midfielder came through the youth ranks at Madrid before making his senior debut in September 2015 after spending a  season-long loan at Espanyol.

Vazquez has already managed to feature in 12 appearances in all competitions for Madrid so far this season while netting one goal in the process.
