Godoy Cruz Antonio Tomba/D/
ParaguayPlayer Info
Juan Escobar is a Paraguayan international defender who has established himself as a top-level centre-back with Peruvian club FBC Melgar. The 30-year-old, who can also play at right-back, is renowned for his defensive intelligence, composure on the ball, and leadership qualities. His career took off in Paraguay with Cerro Porteño before his successful move to Melgar, where he has become a fan favorite and a defensive stalwart in both Liga 1 and the Copa Sudamericana. With Melgar, he has challenged for the Peruvian title and been a key figure in their continental campaigns. His performances earned him a call-up to the Paraguayan national team, where he has represented La Albirroja with distinction. Escobar is a complete defender, equally adept at last-ditch tackles as he is at building play from the back, and is considered one of Paraguay's most reliable exports.
