Football career

Over the course of 14 seasons (13 complete, two separate spells), López represented Cádiz CF, being the player with most official games for the Andalusia side with exactly 400, 385 in league and 15 in the Copa del Rey. He appeared with them in all of the three major levels of Spanish football.[1]

In 2005–06, López played in La Liga with his main club, featuring in 27 matches and scoring in a 1–1 home draw against Racing de Santander[2] as the campaign eventually ended in relegation. In July 2011, aged almost 35, he left the Estadio Ramón de Carranza and resumed his career in the lower leagues and amateur football.
