Juan Redondo

Juan Luis Fernández Redondo (born 17 January 1977) is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a right-back.

He amassed Segunda División totals of 275 matches and six goals over ten seasons, in representation of four clubs. In La Liga, he appeared for Betis, Sevilla and Xerez.

Club career Redondo was born in Camas, Seville, Andalusia. During his professional career, spent mainly in the Segunda División, he also had La Liga spells with both main clubs from Seville: he appeared in only three games late into the 1996–97 season with Real Betis, being regularly played by Sevilla FC in two of his three years but being released prior to their consecutive UEFA Cup exploits.

In January 2008, after a couple of second-tier campaigns with Hércules CF, the 31-year-old Redondo joined Xerez CD in the same league, where he would be used almost exclusively as a backup, only totalling 39 matches over three seasons, the last spent in the top flight with relegation. Subsequently, he renewed his contract for a further year.

In June 2011, after making 33 appearances – 31 starts – to help to an eighth-place finish, Redondo left Xerez and retired from football the following year, after not being able to find a team.
