The loan lasts through 2025 and includes a permanent trade option. As part of the deal, Philadelphia receive $100,000 in General Allocation Money (GAM) split evenly across this season and next.<\/p>\n
\u201cDavid is a high-potential player who fits the way we want to play,” said SDFC sporting director Tyler Heaps.<\/p>\n
“He\u2019s creative in the final third, comfortable between the lines, and shown the ability to create with a final pass or shot. We\u2019re excited to bring him closer to home and provide him with an environment where he can continue to grow.”<\/p>\n
Vazquez originally signed with Philadelphia’s first team in April 2024<\/a> after excelling in MLS NEXT Pro<\/a> with Union II. The 19-year-old has played over 4,300 minutes with the developmental side, contributing 10g\/8a in 57 matches.<\/p>\n Vazquez has been a regular for US youth national teams, including at the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup and the 2024 Concacaf U-20 Championship. He joins defenders Luca Bombino<\/a>, Oscar Verhoeven<\/a> and Aiden Harangi<\/a> as USYNT standouts on San Diego’s expansion-season roster. They also have Alejandro Alvarado Jr.<\/a>, though the midfielder suffered a season-ending knee injury in early July.<\/p>\n The loan arrives with both clubs in contention for the Supporters’ Shield and holding the No. 1 seed in their respective conferences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The loan lasts through 2025 and includes a permanent trade option.
