Club career

He started his career at San Francisco and in February 2011 was apparently sent on loan to Costa Rican giants Alajuelense,[2] only to return to Panama 12 days later after Liga decided his trial period was not successful.[3]

In January 2012, he returned from abroad again to San Francisco after he failed a trial at Slovak club FK Senica who appeared only eager to sign compatriot Rolando Blackburn.[4] Waithe did not renew his contract with San Francisco in December 2014 and left the club after 10 seasons and winning three league titles.[5] He then scored the first goal of the 2015 Clausura season for Tauro in a 1-1 draw against his former club San Francisco.[6]

International career

Waithe made his debut for Panama in March 2010 friendly match against Venezuela and has, as of 15 August 2015, earned a total of 7 caps, scoring 2 goals. He represented his country in 2 FIFA World Cup qualification matches.[7]
