.vue file router link to external url?

I'm making changes to a navigation menu in a .vue file in my laravel application. I'm trying to link to an external url such as https://google.com but if I change the code to an link, the link doesn't show when I compile.

I've tried changing to router-link to an external website, but it didn't work. It tries to go to that as a page /https://google.com

<li class="nav-item" @click="closePanel">
            <router-link class="nav-link" to="/campaigns">
                <i class="fal fa-layer-group"></i>
                <span>Campaigns</span>
            </router-link>
        </li>
<li class="nav-item" @click="closePanel">
            <router-link class="nav-link" to="https://google.com">
                <i class="fal fa-layer-group"></i>
                <span>External website</span>
            </router-link>
        </li>
