Antonio de Jesús López Amenábar (born 10 April 1997) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Liga Nacional club Comunicaciones. Born in Mexico, he represents the Guatemala national team.

Club career

López began his career in the U-15 category of Club América in 2012. For the Liga MX Apertura 2018 tournament, América's head coach Miguel Herrera decided to register him in the first team roster. On 22 July 2018, he made his Liga MX debut coming in as a substitute for Henry Martín on the 83rd minute of the match against Club Necaxa.

International career

Despite being born in Mexico, his Guatemalan ancestry allowed López to be summoned by the Guatemala national team since his maternal grandfather is from Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. On 23 September 2020, he received his first call-up for Guatemala by manager Amarini Villatoro for a friendly match against Mexico.
