Club career
Born in Mérida, Extremadura, López joined Real Betis' youth system in 2010 at the age of 15, having begun at his local club Mérida UD.[3] In October 2012, while still a junior, he was called up to train with the first team by coach Pepe Mel.[4]
López returned to the youth squad, but made his senior debut with the reserves on 9 December 2012, starting the 4–0 away loss against Sevilla Atlético.[5] After splitting the 2013–14 season between the B side and the academy, he first appeared in La Liga with the main squad on 11 May 2014, coming on as an 84th-minute substitute for the injured Antonio Adán in a 4–3 home win over Real Valladolid[6][1] as the Andalusians were already relegated as dead last.[7]
On 26 August 2016, López was loaned to Atlético Sanluqueño CF of Segunda División B.[8] The following 6 July, he returned to Betis B who now competed in the third tier, and renewed his link for a further year.[9]
On 22 April 2018, with starter Adán sidelined due to physical problems, López replaced injured Dani Giménez late into the first half of the league fixture away to Atlético Madrid, and kept a clean sheet in a 0–0 draw.[10] On 3 July, he terminated his contract.[11]
López moved to another reserve team on 30 August 2018, agreeing to a one-year deal with Deportivo Fabril of the third division.[12] After their relegation, he signed a three-year deal with Burgos CF in the same league.[13]
López continue to play in the third tier subsequently, with CF Villanovense, Extremadura UD,[14] UCAM Murcia CF,[15] UD San Sebastián de los Reyes and AD Ceuta FC.[16] The competition was renamed Primera Federación from Primera División RFEF in the 2022–23 campaign.[17]
