About Franco Vázquez

Franco Damián Vázquez (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈfɾaŋko ðaˈmjam ˈbaskes]; born 22 February 1989) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Belgrano. Beginning his career with Argentine club Belgrano in 2007, Vázquez moved to Italian side Palermo in 2011. After a brief loan spell in Spain with Rayo Vallecano during the 2012–13 season, he made his breakthrough with the Sicilian club, earning a transfer to La Liga side Sevilla in 2016. Vázquez holds both Argentine and Italian nationalities as his mother was born in Italy. Internationally, he played for Italy in two friendly matches in 2015, but later declared his intention to represent his birth nation; he played three games for Argentina in 2018. Vázquez was originally kept out of the squad list by head coach Gennaro Gattuso and therefore ineligible to play in any matches for the first half of the 2013–14 Serie B season. On 21 March 2015, Vázquez received his first Italy national team call up for a UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying match against Bulgaria and a friendly match against England.
