In his first two seasons with the club, under manager Tata Martino, Vazquez was deployed as a winger rather than his natural position of leading the line. As a reserve, Vazquez made 21 appearances and scored one goal over those two seasons, culminating with Atlanta winning the MLS Cup title in 2018. In his second season with Atlanta United, Vazquez was involved in a dressing-room altercation with teammate Ezequiel Barco which led to Barco's suspension and the authoritative intervention of manager Martino to stop the dispute from festering.
After scoring 4 goals in his previous 2 games, Vazquez earned his first MLS Start on June 26, 2019, in a 2–3 defeat to Toronto FC.
On November 19, 2019, Vazquez was selected by Nashville SC in the 2019 MLS Expansion Draft. He was subsequently traded to FC Cincinnati in exchange for $150,000 in Targeted Allocation Money.
International career
Born in the United States, Vazquez is also eligible to play for Mexico. He has represented the United States at the youth level, but has also been called up by Mexico.
He was part of the United States U17 squad for the 2015 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, playing in four games in the tournament.
Vazquez was then named to the United States squad for the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup. He played in two of the three group stage games, scoring against Croatia U17 and Chile U17 as the team finished last in their group and failed to advance from the group stage.
He has also played for the United States at the under-19 and under-20 levels.
Brandon Vazquez is a United States centre-forward currently listed with Austin FC in Major League Soccer.
