We hold a single season for López, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, 14th of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Liga MX. At 26 López is in his prime years, and a market index of 31.2 reflects that trajectory.
3.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 43.4, López carries the 14th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga MX of 30, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Santos Laguna finished 18th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~31), then tapers with age. At 26, López sits on 31.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is López's projected Rating — 43.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
