Jonathan 'Joni' López Rodríguez (born 17 April 1987 in Oviedo, Asturias) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Candás CF. Mainly a central defender, he can also operate as a left back.
A product of Sporting de Gijón's youth ranks, López amassed 16 second division appearances during his first two professional seasons (including three in 2007–08, as the club returned to the top flight after ten years).
In the following campaign, he was loaned to FC Barcelona B in the third level, returning to Asturias in June 2009, and continuing to play with the reserves until his release.
On 27 January 2011, after spending the first months of the season without a team, López signed with Candás CF in the fourth division, a club coached by former Sporting player and B-team coach Abelardo Fernández.[1]
