Juan Pablo Vilela Tavares (born 25 April 2002), known as Juan Tavares or just Juan, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a left back for Cuiabá.
Born in Brasília, Federal District, Juan joined Goiás' youth setup in 2016, from Atlético Mineiro.[2] He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 15 May 2022, coming on as a late substitute for Diego in a 1–0 home win over Santos.[3]
Juan left the Esmeraldino on a mutual agreement on 29 December 2022,[4] and signed for Série C side Paysandu on 17 January 2023.[5] On 5 March, however, he left the latter club after just four matches,[6] and subsequently moved to Cuiabá, initially for the under-23 team.
