José Luis López Ramírez (born March 31, 1981) is a Costa Rican football (soccer) player who currently plays for Costa Rican club Deportivo Saprissa.

Biography

Club career

With Saprissa he has already won five national championships, a UNCAF Cup and a CONCACAF Champions Cup title, in less than four years, and was part of the team that played the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship Toyota Cup, where Saprissa finished third behind São Paulo Futebol Clube and Liverpool F.C.

Lopez joined Australian club Melbourne Victory in July 2008 on a two-year loan deal after the club managed to free up a space for another international player after left-back Joseph Keenan was released by mutual consent.[1] Lopez made his debut for Melbourne Victory against Perth Glory in the 2008-09 A-League Pre-Season Cup on Saturday, July 26, 2008, with Melbourne winning the game 1-0 through a Michael Thwaite header.

International career

Commonly known as "Puppy", he has been an important player for the Costa Rica national football team at numerous levels, playing and captained in the under 20 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship held in Argentina,[2] as well as representing the country with the U-23 team at the 2004 Summer Olympics.[2] held in Athens.

He has also been capped 38 times for the full national team, making his debut in a friendly against the United States on September 7, 2003,[3] playing for the team during 2006 FIFA World Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup Qualifying.[2]

There is some confusion as to whether his nickname is "Pupy" or "Puppy". The Spanish Wikipedia entry notes his nickname as "Puppy" [4].

López Ramírez made three appearances at the 2005 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[5]
