Described by Toronto FC general manager Tim Bezbatchenko as "a creative player with experience playing in an attacking midfield role but also centrally which gives us flexibility in our system," Vazquez had a spectacular first season with Toronto. He is a precision passer who finished the regular season with 16 assists. It's safe to say he'll figure into TFC's midfield for 2018.
