"Niñato... you are very quiet tonight. Last time, you had plenty to say for yourself. Big talk and big plans."
—Juan to Jamie Tovell, inadvertently revealing Jamie's motives to Sully.
Juan "el Bueno" was a corrupt member of Spain's National Police. Leveraging his high-ranking authority, Juan established himself in the Hispano–Moroccan drug trade by accepting bribes from traffickers operating in his jurisdiction, particularly from warring gangs Los Duques and the Moroccan cartel, and ruthlessly antagonizing those who did not earn him the most money.
Dushane Hill, the leader of the London-based Summerhouse gang, sent rival-turned-allied gang leader Jamie Tovell to Spain to sort out complications stemming from Juan capturing their drug shipments from the Moroccan cartel. During a feigned deal set up by Summerhouse co-founder Gerard "Sully" Sullivan (having arrived unexpectedly to assist Jamie) and a Spanish cartel member named Emilio, Sully shot Juan, where Emilio then executed him as revenge for Juan having earlier ordered the murder of Emilio's brother-in-law.
Jamie is later executed by Sully back in London; Juan had inadvertently revealed to Sully that Jamie had been trying to broker a deal with Juan on Jamie's own behalf, in order to usurp power from the Summerhouse gang back in London.
