Deportivo 'reactivate talks' for Bayer Leverkusen’s Lucas Vázquez to bolster right-back | OneFootball

According to Superdeporte, Deportivo have reactivated late-window talks to try to sign Bayer Leverkusen’s Lucas Vázquez, with the aim of strengthening right-back.

The Galician club believe the Curtis-born former Real Madrid player would raise the level of the squad, and his arrival would represent an emotional return home.

Negotiations are complicated by his contract in Germany, which runs to 2027. He remains part of Leverkusen’s plans, underlined by his goal in the first round of the German Cup against SV Wehen Wiesbaden.

Deportivo are exploring a financially viable formula that fits within their margins before the transfer window closes.

The deal is considered difficult due to his salary expectations and current Bundesliga status, though there is hope that the emotional pull of Galicia could help move talks forward.
