Atlanta United, Lisandro Lopez agree to part ways

Atlanta United announced on Tuesday that it has come to an agreement with veteran forward Lisandro Lopez to terminate his contract with the club. This news comes on the heels of the tragic passing of Lopez’s father a few weeks ago.

The 38-year-old left the team to return home to Argentina following the death of his father and is reportedly contemplating retirement. The club and player have come to this agreement to free up Lopez to make the best decision for his future, whether that’s to call it a career or perhaps play closer to his family.
