Born in Barakaldo, López graduated from the Athletic Bilbao academy in 2014, having joined the Lezama youth setup in 2006.[1][2] After two seasons with the C-team (during which period he also played in the UEFA Youth League and the Premier League International Cup),[2] he was promoted to the reserves on 7 June 2016.[3] On 22 August, he made his debut in the third tier, playing the whole ninety minutes of a 3–0 victory against UD Socuéllamos.[4]
In February 2018, López was called to the senior squad by manager José Ángel Ziganda for a domestic league fixture against Girona FC as a replacement for the injured Mikel Balenziaga.[1] On 4 February, he made his first team debut in the match, playing the entire ninety minutes and conceding a penalty in the first half of a 2–0 defeat.[1][5]
On 17 August 2018, López was loaned to Segunda División side UD Almería until the end of the season.[6] He scored his first professional goal on 4 November, netting the winner in a 2–1 home defeat of Sporting de Gijón.[7]
On 7 August 2019, López moved to fellow second division side Elche CF also in a temporary deal.[8] A backup to Juan Cruz, he contributed with 21 appearances overall as his side achieved promotion to La Liga.
On 1 September 2020, López moved to UD Logroñés in the second level on a two-year contract,[9] with Athletic retaining a buy-back clause.[10] On 28 January 2022, he moved to SD Amorebieta.[11]
On 1 September 2022, after suffering relegation, López joined CD Tenerife still in division two, on a one-year contract.[12]
