Major League Soccer (MLS) today announced Austin FC goalkeeper Brad Stuver and forward Brandon Vazquez as members of the league’s 2025 All-Star roster. Both Stuver and Vazquez will take part in the MLS All-Star Game on July 23 (8:00 p.m. CT) at Q2 Stadium.
Austin FC Head Coach Nico Estévez, along with his technical staff, will coach the MLS All-Stars against the LIGA MX All-Stars from Mexico’s top soccer league. Estévez worked in tandem with MLS to select 12 total players to the roster.
The 2025 MLS All-Star Game in Austin marks the first major professional sports all-star game in the city’s history. The match at Q2 Stadium will also be the first MLS All-Star Game held in Texas since 2010, and the first-ever MLS All-Star Game in a soccer-specific stadium within the Lone Star State.
Stuver has consistently been among the league’s top shot-stoppers in recent seasons, ranking in the top five (5) for both saves (63) and clean sheets (7) in 2025. He led the league in saves in both 2023 and 2024. Stuver is Austin’s all-time leader in appearances with 163, tallying 37 total shutouts.
Vazquez leads Austin FC with eight (8) goals across all competitions in his first season with the Club. He scored the winning goal in the team’s most recent match vs. New York Red Bulls. Vazquez earns his second career MLS All-Star selection after making the team in 2022, a season in which he also made the MLS Best XI.
Stuver and Vazquez are the third and fourth Austin FC players to be named MLS All-Stars following Sebastián Driussi in 2022 and Jon Gallagher in 2023.
Stuver, Vazquez, and Estévez will be available to speak with media in-person at St. David’s Performance Center following the team’s training session at 11:00 a.m. CT on Thursday, June 26.
