Club career

edit

After a couple of years in Pumas UNAM academy, Vásquez first joined Tigres UANL youth academy in 2015. He then briefly transferred to Poblado Miguel Alemán FC in 2016 before settling in Cimarrones de Sonora, successfully going through the ranks until reaching the first team and making his professional debut in the Ascenso MX.[4]

In April 2018, Vásquez joined Monterrey on a two-year loan deal with the option to buy.[5] He was eventually purchased by Monterrey for US$2 million, making him the most expensive transfer between the top two levels of Mexican football.[6]

In December 2019, Vásquez joined UNAM on loan with the option to buy.[7] Two months later, following impressive performances, 50 percent of his rights were purchased by UNAM.[8]

On 16 August 2021, Vásquez joined Serie A club Genoa on a season-long loan with an obligation to buy after one played match.[9][10] On 17 October, Vásquez made his debut with the team in a league match against Sassuolo, scoring the equalizing goal for his team for a 2–2 draw.[11]

On 18 June 2022, Vásquez moved to recently promoted Cremonese on loan with an option to buy.[12] He returned to Genoa after the end of the season.[13]

International career

Vásquez began his international career with the under-23 side, featuring at the 2019 Pan American Games[14] where Mexico won the bronze medal.[15] He also participated at the 2020 CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying Championship, scoring one goal in five appearances, where Mexico won the competition. He was included in the tournament's Best XI.[16] Vásquez was subsequently called up to participate in the 2020 Summer Olympics. He won the bronze medal with the Olympic team.[17]

Senior

edit

On 2 October 2019, Vásquez made his senior national team debut in a friendly against Trinidad & Tobago. He came on as a substitute replacing Paolo Yrizar in the 63rd minute in Mexico's 2–0 win.[18]

In October 2022, Vásquez was named in Mexico's preliminary 31-man squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and in November, he was ultimately included in the final 26-man roster, but did not receive any minutes on the field during the tournament.[19]
