Luis Fernando Garrido (born 5 November 1990) is a Honduran football player who currently plays for Club Deportivo Olimpia. Most often deployed as a defensive midfielder, he also plays for the Honduran national team.

Club career

Born in Juticalpa, Garrido started playing for Juticalpa FC in the secondary division when he was 17 years old. Then he moved to Olimpia and made his senior debut in the 2007–08 Honduran Liga Nacional. He played 6 consecutive seasons with Olimpia winning 5 national titles. On January 25, 2013, he agreed to a six-month loan at Red Star Belgrade for the spring 2013 half-season.[1] On February 1, 2013, he was promoted by Red Star Belgrade after he inked his contract for a 6-month loan, with an option to sign a subsequent contract in June 2013 to stay with the club permanently.[2] However at the end of the season Red Star was unable to fullfill the finantial demands of Olimpia, so his first experience in Europe came to an end, and subsequently Garrido returned to Olimpia. He played 10 matches in the Serbian SuperLiga and Red Star finished the season runner-up.

International career

As a youth, he was also a "sub" in a 2007 international game against the United States,[3] and later that year played a game for the Honduran national under-17 team against the USA.[4] He played at the 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup and at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

He made his senior debut for Honduras in an October 2012 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Panama. Ever since he became progressively a key player in the FIFA World Cup qualification matches.[5]
