Early life edit
Vasconcelos attended high school St. Benedict CSS in Cambridge, Ontario, being named league MVP in June 2023.[1][2] In 2023, he was set to begin attending the University of Vermont and play for the men's soccer team, however, some academic delays prevented him from joining the school.[3]
Club career edit
In 2022, Vasconcelos began playing in League1 Ontario with Guelph United, where he was named the team's U21 player of the year.[4]
In June 2023, he joined Canadian Premier League club York United, on a short-term agreement, where he made the matchday squad three times in June and July, but did not make an appearance in a match.[5] Later that summer, he went on trial with fellow CPL club the HFX Wanderers, including playing some friendly matches with their U23 side against German side Holstein Kiel U23.[6] In September 2023, he signed a developmental contract with the Wanderers.[7] He made his professional debut on October 6, 2023, coming on as a substitute against Valour FC.[8] In February 2024, he signed a fully professional contract through the 2025 season with the club.[9][10]
