Refund to a closed PayPal account's linked Credit Card

I recently closed a PayPal account, but not long ago, I made a purchase using it, paying with a credit card linked to that PayPal account. I can see this transaction on my credit card statement.

 

Now I may need to return the goods and get a refund. I'm wondering in such a situation, will the refund go directly back to the associated credit card? Since that PayPal account is closed, I'm worried about it.

If you funded the original Paypal payment to the seller from your bank account or a card then once marked refunded/completed it will automatically go back to that bank account or card.
