Francisco Javier 'Javi' López Díaz (born 20 April 1988) is a Spanish footballer who plays for CD Guadalajara as a midfielder.
Football career
López was born in Málaga, Andalusia. As a product of hometown Málaga CF's youth ranks, López made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 7 November 2009, scoring in a 2–2 away draw against CD Tenerife; another player promoted from the reserves, Daniel Toribio, also made his first appearance in that game.[1]
Firmly established in the side's starting XI, López netted his second goal on 31 January 2010 in a 2–0 triumph at Atlético Madrid.[2] For the 2010–11 season, however, he was loaned to SD Ponferradina, freshly returned to the second division, alongside teammate Toribio; on 11 September he scored his first goal, but this happened in a 1–5 home loss against Villarreal CF B.
The following summer López was again loaned, this time to Real Jaén in the third level. He made his official debut on 18 September 2011 in a 2−0 home win against CD Puertollano, and netted his first goal on 12 February of the following year, in a 1−1 draw against the same opponents.
On 6 June 2012 López was told that his contract would not be renewed by Málaga, and he would be free to start looking for a new club.[3] The following month he signed with Getafe CF's reserves, in division three.
