David Vázquez González (born 12 April 1985 in A Coruña, Galicia), known as Chapi, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a defender.

Football career[edit]

A product of local Deportivo de La Coruña's youth ranks, Chapi appeared once for its first team during his three years as a senior with the club: on 16 December 2007, as the Galicians were coached by Miguel Ángel Lotina, he played 61 minutes against Real Zaragoza, replacing injured Manuel Pablo in a 1–1 home draw.^[1]

After failure in negotiations to further his link to Depor, Chapi was released and moved abroad, signing a 1+1 deal with Belgian side S.V. Zulte Waregem.^[2] However, unsettled, he returned to his country – and to his region – after just one season, joining lowly SD Compostela.^[3]
