Anybody know anything about him? I've just seen this, he's came through the Real Madrid setup so obviously Karanka must know him. According to Wikipedia he can play right back, on the wing and as a forward Link to post Share on other sites

"KM" 1,656 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 He's got an alright free kick on him like :D http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Az--rZFvVOA Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Doesn't seem like a bad alternative. 34 games in La Liga last year, albeit at the rock bottom club, must indicate that he has a certain level. From his description he seems a bit too offensive to play right back, but nevertheless sounds like a good versatile alternative and a very cheap one. Link to post Share on other sites

It appears to claim that the clubs are in talks. If Google translate wasnt so sh*te things might be more clear Also is Juanfran the most Spanish-sounding name ever?! It sounds made up to be honest. Might aswell be called Rodrigo Paella :D Link to post Share on other sites
BoroDownSouth 60 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I think he'd be a great signing for us. Basically it appears Juanfran has been a "soap opera" lately, I presume a few clubs are interested or there are contract negotiations going on and his agent is playing them a bit. We are happy to pay 500k it appears, plus promotion bonuses. Juanfran doesn't know about the interest yet, and once a bid is accepted "Then you touch him and his advisers say in the matter." ie, then we can offer a contract and his agent can get involved.

smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 If we sign him and Juanfran from Atletico does that give us Twofran? Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,982 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Does anyone know where he's been playing for Betis? 1 goal in 34 games suggests he's probably not been playing as an out and out forward, so has he been playing as a winger out there? Where do you guys think we'll be bringing him in to play (if we get him) since he can supposedly play RB, on the wing and up front. Link to post Share on other sites
OldManGravz 1,350 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Surely it'd be Dosfran? Link to post Share on other sites
