Jose Manuel López

Jose Manuel López is a forward who has built his career at Palmeiras after coming through Lanús, establishing himself in one of South America's most demanding club environments. Playing in Brazil's Série A under consistent title pressure at Palmeiras has sharpened his positional discipline and movement. For Argentina, he represents depth in attack rather than a guaranteed starter — a player whose South American football education gives him tactical maturity beyond his 25 years. His ability to press from the front and link play fits the structured attacking patterns Lionel Scaloni prefers from his forward line.
