On January 2, 2020, Chará joined MLS club Portland Timbers as a Designated Player. It was the first time since his brother Diego left Deportes Tolima in 2011 that they had been at the same club.
On October 3, 2014, Chará was called up to the Colombian senior team, for the first time, by manager José Néstor Pekerman for the team's friendlies against El Salvador and Canada. On August 31, 2017, Chará made his official debut with Colombia playing an away game against Venezuela. On his third match with the Colombian senior team against Paraguay, he assisted and quickly became a more important player for the Colombian senior team.
