Iván Chapela López (born 21 May 1999) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a left winger for CD Eldense.
Born in Chiclana de la Frontera, Cádiz, Andalusia, Chapela joined Valencia CF's youth setup at the age of 13, from APA Sancti Petri.[1] In 2017, after struggling with injuries, he left the club and moved to Málaga CF.[2]
Chapela made his senior debut with Málaga's B-team on 22 February 2018, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Jaime Moreno in a 2–1 Tercera División home win over Loja CD. On 1 August, he signed a three-year contract with Cádiz CF, being initially assigned to the reserves also in the fourth division.[3]
On 15 January 2021, after becoming a regular starter for the B-team, Chapela renewed his contract with Cádiz until 2022.[4] He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 2 October, replacing Jens Jønsson in a 0–0 home draw against Valencia CF.[5]
On 1 September 2022, Chapela was loaned to Primera Federación side Unionistas de Salamanca CF for the season.[6] On 9 July of the following year, he signed a two-year contract with CD Eldense, newly-promoted to Segunda División.[7]
