La nostalgia de López

José Luis López asumió este clásico y final de temporada como su último partido con Saprissa, al menos por ahora.

El volante morado aseguró que ya hay un acuerdo para vincularse la próxima campaña al Melbourne Victory de la liga profesional de Australia.

López detalló que se integrará a su nuevo club –donde milita el también costarricense Carlos Hernández– en julio próximo.

El gerente del Saprissa, Mariano Varela, aclaró que todavía no hay nada firmado, pero que le dieron libertad a López para que negociara el contrato.

No obstante, las palabras del jugador al final del compromiso anunciaban que la legión tica crecerá dentro de un mes.

“En un momento así el corazón y la mente se me llenan de muchas emociones. Es un poco triste porque me voy, porque dejo una afición y mucha gente que siempre me abrió las puertas y me permitió crecer”, comentó sobre la gramilla del estadio Alejandro Morera Soto.

“Pero por otro lado me voy feliz porque es una oportunidad muy buena y tuvimos un gran cierre”, agregó.

López llegó a Saprissa en la temporada 2003-2004 proveniente del Herediano. Con los morados cosechó cinco títulos nacionales, uno de Concacaf y participó en el Mundial de Clubes de Japón 2005.

Antes de viajar a Australia deberá integrarse a la Selección Mayor para los compromisos ante Granada. Es otra herencia de su paso por Saprissa: las convocatorias a la Tricolor.

Carlos yes, he even scored a goal. Lopez no, he wasn't signed yet at that stage.

is it official? Good for him, his cycle in saprissa was ending anyway and its great that he is going to play somewhere else

Do you guys think Sydney is willing to sell Carlos Hernandez to another club? Pupy lopez plays almost the same position, Lopez is more defensive than hernandez but both together in the same team doesnt sound very smart for me

It's Melbourne not Sydney :)

And i odubt Melbourne would et Hernandez go seeing as he was one of their best player in the secnod half of last season, and he's still got 1 year left on his two year loan deal.

As fo playng in the same position. Everyone is under the impression that Lopez is a defensive midfielder, while Carlos plays attacking mid. So don't know about them playing in the same position.

IMO carlos is a center midfield, not offensive
Lopez is a defensive midfielder

Maybe when he was at LDA. But there were no long range strikes like that last season for MV. Hopefully he can get some on target this season though, it's always nice to see long range shots :)
