The Chicago Red Stars announced the signing Thursday of Spanish midfielder Maitane Lopez.
Lopez, 29, arrives on a two-year contract following two NWSL seasons with NJ/NY Gotham FC.
“We are very excited to have Maitane join us,” general manager Richard Feuz said. “(Her) technical skills, coupled with her experience at Gotham and in Liga F, gives us more reinforcement in the midfield and bolsters our roster ahead of the 2025 season.”
Lopez appeared in 31 matches (18 starts) with Gotham, winning the league championship in 2023.
“I’m beyond excited to start this new chapter of my career with the Chicago Red Stars,” Lopez said in a news release. “I’m looking forward to building with this club and meeting the fans! I’m ready to give my all, grow as a player and help the team achieve titles.”
Before jumping to the NWSL, Lopez scored 42 goals across 11 seasons in Spain with Atletico de Madrid, Real Sociedad, Levante and Collerense.
