Bayer Leverkusen sporting director Rudi Voeller has admitted centre back Juan is almost certain to leave the club at the end of the season.
The Brazil international is contracted to the club until 2009, though is keen to leave the BayArena, with Roma rumoured as a likely destination.
"In all probability we will lose Juan," Voeller admitted. "It is not yet decided whether he will go to AS Roma or another southern European club."
"It will be difficult to make up for this loss, but we will get a few euros for him, and will have to look for replacements in defence."
Juan is likely to be the second player to leave Leverkusen in the summer, with striker Andriy Voronin having already agreed a move to Liverpool.
