Juanma

Born in Huelva, Andalusia, Juanma started his professional career with local Recreativo de Huelva in 1997. He signed for Atlético Madrid two years later, but spent the vast majority of his stint with the B team and left after one season for UD Salamanca, also in the Segunda División; however, in January 2001, he moved to Racing de Santander, making his debut in La Liga on the 14th in a 0–1 home defeat against Málaga CF. Juanma achieved top-flight promotion in 2002. He scored his first goal in the competition on 26 January 2003, but in a 3–1 loss away to CA Osasuna. Juanma was manager Joaquín Caparrós' first signing for Deportivo de La Coruña when he joined in July 2005 from Racing on a free transfer. On 26 October, in a home fixture against Real Madrid, he scored twice as Depor won 3–1, and netted four goals in 23 games during the campaign. In 2006–07, however, after Portuguese Jorge Andrade fully recovered from injury, Juanma would be virtually absent from the team's starting eleven. He subsequently joined second-tier club CD Tenerife ahead of the following season. On 12 January 2009, the free agent Juanma agreed to a contract at Cádiz CF in the Segunda División B. He scored on his debut, a 2–1 away victory over Granada 74 CF, in an eventual promotion; he was released in September.
