Early career

Seymour began his football career on a Chilean reality television show called Adidas Selection Team. On the show, players from different professional clubs' youth squads were joined together to form a team to play against different schools in the Chilean Metropolitan area. The team beat all the schools it played except the last, which was San Ignacio. San Ignacio beat "Team Adidas" with five goals scored by Felipe Seymour. After that Seymour was signed by the Universidad de Chile's youth squad.

Under the management of Arturo Salah, Seymour was on the bench for most games, but on October 21, he came off the bench in the Chilean football derby (called "Superclásico") against Colo-Colo.

Then with the arrival of Jose Basualdo, Seymour was frequently in the starting lineup. In Clásico Universitario he scored a goal against Universidad Católica in a 3–2 home loss.

In 2010 with the arrival of the Uruguayan coach Gerardo Pelusso, he became a key player for the club.

In Copa Libertadores 2010, he scored two long-distance goals. One took place against Flamengo in Estadio Monumental David Arellano in a 2–1 home victory in front of 30,000 spectators. The other was in a game against Alianza Lima in the last minute in the round of 16 for Copa Libertadores, when the team was losing on the global result. He was in matches on other occasions, against Huachipato on February 9 for the fourth week in Estadio Francisco Sánchez Rumoroso in a 3–0 home victory, and Cobresal on September 5 for the twenty-second week in Estadio El Cobre in a 2–1 away victory.
