Football career

Born in Yecla, Region of Murcia, Juanto joined Villarreal CF in 2011 following a brief period with Albacete Balompié,[1] being initially assigned to the C-team. On 21 January 2012 he made his Segunda División debut, appearing for the reserves against Deportivo de La Coruña.[2]

Juanto scored his first goal as a professional on 3 March 2012, playing 28 minutes and contributing to a 4–3 home win over CD Alcoyano.[3] He contributed with 16 games during the season, as both the first and the second teams dropped down a level.

On 17 July 2014, Juanto signed a two-year contract with Real Murcia from division two.[4] However, after the club's administrative relegation, he rescinded his link and moved to CE Sabadell FC also in the category.[5]

On 9 April 2015, Juanto rescinded his link with the Catalans, and signed for UCAM Murcia CF in the third level hours later.[6]

Juanto's older brother, Alfredo, is also a footballer and a forward. He too was brought up at Albacete.
