A second Real Madrid player has left the club after their defeat by Paris Saint Germain in the FIFA Club World Cup.

On Wednesday evening, La Liga giants Madrid and Champions League winners PSG faced off at the MetLife Stadium with a place in the final of the newly revamped Club World Cup at stake.

Although many people expected a close encounter, it was anything but that.

PSG were a class above as a brace from Fabian Ruiz and goals by Ousmane Dembele and Goncalo Ramos sealed a 4-0 victory.

As a result, the French side will take on Premier League giants Chelsea in Sunday's final.

On the back of the dismal defeat, club legend Luka Modric's exit has been confirmed.

Prior to the tournament, it was already stated that the Croatian midfielder would depart when the Club World Cup campaign finishes.

In addition to Modric, Spaniard Lucas Vazquez has also left Los Blancos.

Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano wrote on social media: "Lucas Vázquez leaves Real Madrid and he’s set for next move as free agent. Legend of the club."

Since returning to Madrid in 2015, Vazquez went on to make a total of 402 appearances across all competitions, scoring 38 goals in the process.

The full-back lifted four La Liga titles and five Champions Leagues among other trophies.

Where will Lucas Vazquez go next?

According to news outlet e-noticies, Vazquez is keen to remain in Europe, specifically in Spain.

As a result, it rules out options such as Qatar or Saudi Arabia.

Vazquez's goal is to find a competitive place to continue his career and moving to a foreign team is not an appealing option.

It has been stated that a return to Espanyol could be possible. Real Betis have also emerged as a potential destination.

Speaking after being dumped out of the Club World Cup, manager Xabi Alonso said: "This tournament has taught me many things about what we are and what we have to improve. I'm leaving with a perspective for next year, when we will recover players and there will be changes.

"Next season will be different, but I'll leave with clear certainties. I take all the information that this tournament has given me. We want to build a team that plays as a unit and where everyone is involved."
