Juan José Viedma Schenkhuizen (born 27 October 1974), known as Viedma, is a Dutch retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder or a central defender.
Viedma was born in Heemskerk, North Holland. During his career, the son of a Spanish immigrant represented in his country NEC Nijmegen, RBC Roosendaal (promoting to the Eredivisie in his debut season) and FC Omniworld, still playing afterwards with VV Katwijk and FC Uitgeest at amateur level; both major divisions combined, he appeared in 140 matches and scored four times.
During five years, Viedma competed in his ancestor's homeland with SD Compostela, amassing La Liga totals of 41 games and two goals[1] [2] in his first two seasons. The rest was spent in the second tier, being used almost exclusively as a backup.
