Barcelona, Bayern Munich watching Atletico Madrid fullback Juanfran

Atletico Madrid face a battle keeping hold of veteran fullback Juanfran.

Marca says Barcelona and Bayern Munich circling for the 32 year-old.

Atletico's policy that every player of that age or above renews season by season has opened the door to them losing Juanfran this summer.

His current contract ends in 2018 and so from January he is able to arrange a free transfer to a club of his choosing.

"Making an exception would create a problem in the dressing room," an unnamed Atleti source has been quoted as saying.
