*Club domestic league appearances and goals

Juan Manuel Barrero Barrero (born 27 June 1980), known as Juanma, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and is a current manager.

He spent most of his 16-year professional career in the Spanish lower leagues. He appeared in 38 La Liga games over three seasons, with Atlético Madrid and Numancia.

Club career

Juanma was born in Badajoz, Extremadura. After beginning with local side Mérida UD, he moved in 2002 to Atlético Madrid, starting out at their reserves. He played twice with the first team in his first season, then 11 times in the 2003–04 campaign as all goalkeepers (himself, Germán Burgos and Sergio Aragoneses) appeared in roughly the same matches[1][2] and they eventually qualified for the UEFA Intertoto Cup.

Juanma then spent two seasons with CD Numancia, starting in his first but being relegated from La Liga.[3] He left in 2006, resuming his career in the lower leagues: Mérida again, Universidad de Las Palmas CF, CF Atlético Ciudad and AD Alcorcón.

In mid-July 2010, after helping Alcorcón

season in Greece he returned to his country, signing for FC Cartagena of the second level.[5]

Managerial career

On 28 February 2020, Juanma was appointed manager of Mérida AD in the third tier.[6] Prior to the appointment he had already worked in the club's structure as goalkeeper coach and director of the academy.[7]

Juanma only managed the club on two matches, as the competition was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and joined Albacete Balompié's staff in December 2020, as an assistant of Alejandro Menéndez. He left in May after Menéndez was sacked, and returned to Mérida on 16 January 2022.

Juanma announced his departure from Mérida on 29 May 2023, after promoting the club to Primera Federación and leading them to a comfortable 8th place finish.[8] On 27 September, he was named manager of CD Atlético Baleares, replacing the sacked Tato,[9] but was himself dismissed on 12 March 2024.[10]
