[edit] Club career

Chávez began his career at Platense Junior before moving to Platense. In 2007-08 he was loaned to Motagua and after a successful season he returned to Platese after the clubs failed to reach an agreement on a transfer fee.[1] In 2009 Chávez had been on trial with English Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur and Scottish Premier League side Celtic.[2]

On 8 August 2010, Chávez joined Polish team Wisła Kraków.[3] 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.[4][5] After the season Chávez signed a new five-year contract with Wisła.[6]

[edit] International career

He made his debut for the national side on 6 February 2008 in a friendly against Paraguay. Chávez was a key figure in Honduras’s successful push for qualification to the 2010 FIFA World Cup.[7] At the World Cup he played in all three group stage games.
