One of the best right-backs in world football at the moment, Juanfran has been a fixture in this extremely impressive Atletico Madrid squad under Diego Simeone. A Real Madrid youth graduate, Juanfran even made 6 senior appearances for the first team squad in 2004 and 2005.

After leaving Los Blancos, Juanfran made a name for himself as one of Spain’s best right-backs with some impressive performances for Espanyol and Osasuna before securing a move to Real Madrid’s cross-town rivals Atletico Madrid in 2010.

Although Juanfran missed a crucial penalty in the Champions League final against Real Madrid, his time at Atletico Madrid has generally been a very successful one. During his time with the Rojiblancos, Juanfran has won the La Liga title, Europa League, Copa del Rey and the UEFA Super Cup.

The 32-year-old has played a crucial role in Atletico Madrid challenging Real Madrid for top honours in the past few seasons.
