Playing career
Club
After playing as an amateur for Achilleas Triandria, Chavos transferred to Olympiacos in 1987. However, after making only three appearances for the Reds during the first half of the 1987–88 season, he moved on loan to Apollon Kalamarias for the remainder of the season. He then transferred to A.O Trikala and enjoyed a fairly successful season, appearing in 28 games and scoring 2 goals. He then transferred to Panserraikos for the next 3 years, appearing in a total of 82 games and scoring 8 goals. This earned him a move to PAOK in 1992 where he spent the next four and a half seasons with the Thessaloniki-based club. Whilst playing for PAOK, he received his one and only cap with the Greek national team, appearing in a friendly against Cyprus on September 2, 1992.
International
His sole cap for the Greek national team came in a friendly game against Cyprus on the 2nd of September, 1992, at the Kaftanzoglio Stadium. In the second half, he came on as a substitute in place of Stratos Apostolakis.
Managerial career
Chavos started his managerial career in 2009 for Agrotikos Asteras.[1] His greatest success came in December 2010 with PAOK when they qualified for Round 32 of UEFA Europa League, after an away victory against Dinamo Zagreb.[2]
