† Appearances (goals)

Juan Luis Guirado Aldeguer (born 27 August 1979), nicknamed Juani, is a Filipino footballer who plays for Ceres F.C. on loan from CD Burgos. He can play as a central defender or as a defensive midfielder.

Club career

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Guirado spent most of his senior career in Segunda División B, playing for CD Don Benito, Burgos CF, UE Sant Andreu and UD Marbella. In late January 2012, he left Racing Lermeño in Tercera División and moved to the Philippines, signing with Global FC. On 6 February he made his official debut for his new team, coming in as a substitute midway through the second half of an eventual 1–0 win against Green Archers United FC.[1]

On 26 February 2012, Guirado scored his first goal for Global in the United Football League, against Philippine Navy F.C. in a 5–0 victory.[2] In late March, he agreed on a return to Lermeño for the following season.[3]

Guirado signed with fellow league club CD Burgos in July 2013, under the condition he would still be able to play international football.[4]

International career

On 4 April 2011, it was reported that the Philippines national team was eying Guirado for the country's bid in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign,[5] but he was not able to suit up for the national squad because of prior commitments with Racing Lermeño.[6] He only made his debut on 29 February 2012 in a friendly match against Malaysia, which ended in a 1–1 draw.[7]

On 19 March 2012, during the third place play-off of the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup, Guirado scored his first international goal to give the Philippines a 4–2 lead over Palestine, in an eventual 4–3 win.[8] On 28 March 2016, he announced his retirement as player and team captain of the Azkals, stating that the 2018 World Cup qualifier against North Korea the next day would be his last match.[9]
