Juan Carlos Real Ruiz (born 15 March 1991), known as Juan Carlos, is a Spanish footballer who plays for Romanian club CFR Cluj as an attacking midfielder.

Football career

Born in A Coruña, Juan Carlos was a product of local Deportivo de La Coruña's youth system, and made his official debut with the first team on 7 September 2011, playing the full 90 minutes in a 5–1 home win against Girona FC for the season's Copa del Rey.[1] He scored 15 goals for the reserves in 2011–12, in the fourth division.

On 3 June 2012, as Depor was already promoted to La Liga as champions, Juan Carlos made his league debut with the main squad, playing 28 minutes in a 1–0 away win against Villarreal CF B.[2] He continued to appear regularly with the B-side, however.

On 14 January 2013 Juan Carlos was loaned to SD Huesca until June.[3] He scored his first professional goal late in the month, netting the first in a 2–1 success at CD Numancia[4] but seeing the Aragonese club eventually suffer second level relegation.

Juan Carlos returned to the Galicians in July, being definitely promoted to the first team also in division two.[5] He played 27 matches and scored three goals during the campaign, as Deportivo returned to the top flight at the first attempt.

On 2 April 2014 Juan Carlos was slapped by teammate Luisinho in the face, after both argued during a training.[6] On 26 January of the following year, after being rarely used during the season, he terminated his link with Depor[7] and joined second tier side CD Tenerife hours later.[8]
