Club career

Chávez began his career at Platense Junior before moving to Platense. He made his professional debut on 7 October 2004 against Municipal Valencia.[3] In 2007–08 he was loaned to F.C. Motagua and after a successful season he returned to Platese after the clubs failed to reach an agreement on a transfer fee.[4] In 2009 Chávez had been on trial with English Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur and Scottish Premier League side Celtic.[5]

On 8 August 2010, Chávez joined Polish team Wisła Kraków.[6] He won the Ekstraklasa championship in his debut season. He was also selected to the Ekstraklasa team of the season by both Canal+ Sport as well as Przegląd Sportowy.[7][8] After the season Chávez signed a new five-year contract with Wisła.[9]

International career

He made his debut for the national side on 6 February 2008 in a friendly against Paraguay. He has represented his country at the 2009[10] and 2011 UNCAF Nations Cups[11] as well as at the 2009[12] and 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cups.[13]

Chávez was a key figure in Honduras's successful push for qualification to the 2010 FIFA World Cup, playing in eleven matches.[14][15] At the World Cup he played in all three group stage games. At the 2014 FIFA World cup in Brazil he played one match as a second-half substitute against France national team.
