Club career
Born in Granada, Andalusia, López joined Málaga CF's youth categories in 2011 at the age of 15.[1] He made his senior debut for the reserves on 3 November 2013, starting in a 1–1 Tercera División away draw against CD Español del Alquián.
López scored his first senior goal on 19 April 2015, netting the game's only in an away success over Vélez CF.[2] During the 2015–16 campaign, he contributed with 37 matches (all as a starter) and one goal as his side narrowly missed out promotion in the play-offs; he also acted as team captain during the season.
On 19 July 2016, López was loaned to Segunda División side RCD Mallorca for one year.[3] After only featuring for the B-side in Segunda División B, he moved to fellow third-tier club Real Murcia the following 31 January, also in a temporary deal.[4]
After appearing rarely, López returned to Málaga and its B-team. He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 13 May 2018, coming on as a half-time substitute for Diego González in a 1–4 away loss against RCD Espanyol.[5]
