The Peruvian Football Federation was able to successfully manage Felipe Chávez, and the midfielder who plays for Bayern Munich in Germany, was able to fulfill one of his main dreams, which is to wear the 'Blanquirroja' in an international friendly against Ecuador.

Pablo Zegarra, under-17 coach, did not make him start, but he did give him minutes in the 1-1 draw against the 'Tricolor' in a match that serves as preparation for the South American Championship. The 15-year-old midfielder was the big surprise in the second half of the match.
After this important debut, the FPF has been able to recruit one of the 'promises' that the 'bavarian' team has. The young footballer arrived with his short but necessary experience, as some time ago he defended the colors of Germany and was able to 'rub shoulders' with high-level boys.
Finally, it is worth noting that Felipe Chávez is not the only foreigner on the roster of the under-17 national team, as goalkeeper Juan Pedro Durán from UE Cornella (Spain) was a starter and Matías Barboza from Arsenal (Argentina) was among the substitutes.

While Felipe Chávez's achievement is tremendous joy, it must be remembered that Matteo Pérez also plays for Bayern Munich and has Peruvian roots. However, he decided to represent Sweden and leave the Peruvian National Team aside.
