Juan Miguel "Juanmi" Callejón Bueno (born 11 February 1987) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Saudi Arabian club Ettifaq FC as a midfielder.
He amassed Segunda División totals of 88 games and five goals, representing four clubs in the competition. He spent most of his professional career in Bolivia, with Bolívar.
Callejón was born in Motril, Granada. In 2005–06, he played in 33 games and scored eight goals for Real Madrid's Juvenil A and, in March 2007, he made his senior debut for the B-side, finishing the season in the second division with that sole substitute appearance as they dropped down a level.
In 2007–08, Callejón played together with brother José as Real B were now in division three. On 11 August 2008 he signed a four-year contract with RCD Mallorca, leaving in the same transfer window as his twin brother – the Balearic Islands club retained 75% of the player's rights. He made his La Liga debut on 25 September 2008 in a 2–0 home win over CD Numancia, starting in what would be his only league match in the entire campaign.
On 25 August 2009, Callejón was loaned to Albacete Balompié in the second division, in a season-long move. He stayed in that tier for 2010–11, joining Córdoba CF in his native Andalusia on a free transfer.
