FC Bayern have extended attacker Felipe Chávez’s contract through to 30 June 2028 and agreed a loan move to 1. FC Magdeburg for this season. The 19-year-old Peru international previously gained Bundesliga experience on loan at 1. FC Köln in the second half of the last campaign.
Christoph Freund, FC Bayern sporting director: “’Pippo’ Chávez took the next step in his development with his outings for 1. FC Köln and should now gain more regular playing time at Magdeburg. We have extended his contract because we are convinced of his potential for the future."
The native Bavarian, who was born in Aichach, moved to the FC Bayern Campus from the FC Augsburg academy in summer 2019. He progressed through all the youth teams and after registering four goals and two assists in 19 games for the reserve team, earned his professional debut in the 8-1 win over VfL Wolfsburg at the Allianz Arena in January. He featured seven times in the Bundesliga for Köln. Chávez also made his debut for Peru’s senior national team in a friendly against Chile last October.
