Atletico Madrid 96/97 player shirt by Puma believed to have been issued to Lopez for the 1996-97 Champions League Quarter Final 1st leg played at the Amsterdam ArenA on the 5th March 1997.
Lopez was an unused substitute in this match as Atletico ground out a 1-1 draw against the reigning champions. Esnaider opened the scoring after just 8 minutes for the La Liga holders but Patrick Kluivert hit an equaliser in the second half and the game ended 1-1.

Unfortunately Atleti lost out in extra-time in the 2nd leg which was a thriller. The one club man Lopez made his debut in '91 and was a first team regular for a decade at the Vicente Calderon, also making 11 appearances for Spain.
Correct player size name set and Champions League starball printed within the material, the design of the shirt does not incorporate the image of the Vicente Calderon like the replica does, commercial replica also has white instead of red detail on the collar and LFP and Bandai sleeve logos, long sleeved version not available to buy, swapped with an Ajax player and comes from their collection - a signed letter verifying this can be provided.
