Career

Vega started out his career with Torneo Argentino C's Villa Cubas.[2] Deportivo Morón of Primera B Metropolitana signed Vega in 2006.[2] He remained in Morón for four years, scoring ten goals in one hundred and thirty-two appearances.[2] On 30 June 2010, Vega moved to Aldosivi.[1][3] He made his debut on 7 August against CAI, which was one of sixty-five matches he featured in over two seasons as they secured seventh and eleventh-place finishes; he also scored three times.[1] Vega joined Primera B Nacional side Olimpo in 2012.[1] He netted against Rosario Central, Ferro Carril Oeste and Atlético Tucumán as they won promotion to the Primera División.[1][4]

Between 2013 and 2014, Vega had stints in the second tier with Talleres, where he suffered relegation, and All Boys before agreeing to play for Barracas Central in Primera B Metropolitana.[1] In 2016, Almirante Brown became Vega's eighth club.[1][5] Two goals in forty-two fixtures followed, with his last appearance occurring on 30 June 2017 versus Deportivo Español.[1][6] Third tier Platense completed the signing of Vega in the succeeding July.[1] His first campaign, 2017–18, concluded with Platense winning the league title to gain promotion to Primera B Nacional.[1]
