Juan Luis Hens Lorite (born 7 February 1984), commonly known as Juanlu, is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a right midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Juanlu was born in Fuente Palmera, Province of Córdoba.[1] After starting out at local Córdoba CF he moved to Valencia CF in January 2003, playing mostly for their reserves.[2] On 23 January 2005, he appeared in the first of five competitive matches with the first team,[3][4][5][6] against Villarreal CF: he came on as a substitute for Francisco Rufete in the seventh minute, being himself replaced at half-time by Marco Di Vaio in an eventual 3–1 La Liga away loss.[7]

After a loan at UE Lleida, Juanlu was released and resumed his career also in the Segunda División, signing a two-year contract with CD Tenerife from Granada 74 CF in July 2008[8] and contributing four goals in 35 games in his second season as the club returned to the top flight after seven years.[9][10]

Juanlu scored his first goal in the main tier on 13 December 2009, a consolation in the 2–1 defeat at Getafe CF;[11] he totalled four for the campaign, in an immediate relegation.[9] He was also part of the squad in 2010–11, as the side went down again.[12]

Juanlu then spent four seasons in division two with Girona FC.[13][14] He netted twice in the 2013 play-offs,[15] but eventually failed to promote.[16]

On 18 August 2015, the 31-year-old Juanlu joined third-tier FC Cartagena.[17] In summer 2017, he moved to Mérida AD of the same league.[18]
