2 goals in 19 appearances (0.11 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.18 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.9, López carries the 10th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina (top 21%). In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.18 goal contributions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
