Club career
Born in Cádiz, Andalusia, Juan José started his professional career with hometown's Cádiz CF, in the second division. In 1982 he moved to La Liga giants Real Madrid,[2] being relatively used during three seasons – in his last his only two pieces of silverware arrived, but he had already lost his starting job to youngster Chendo.
Juan José closed out his career with his first team, helping the Andalusians to six consecutive top flight campaigns,[3] with the player averaging 25 games per year. He retired at the age of 34.
International career
Juan José played four times for Spain, all coming in matches for the UEFA Euro 1984 qualifiers where the nation eventually finished runner-up, although he did not make the final cut. He was the first Cádiz player to ever be called by the national team.[4]
Post-retirement
After retiring, Juan José was forced to return to active due to economic problems, working for several years in a shipyard amongst other jobs.[1]
