Club career

Tenerife

Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, González started playing in CD Tenerife's youth setup. He later appeared with the first team in the 2014 pre-season, being also called up to the match against SD Ponferradina on 22 August 2014.[3]

On 24 August 2014, before even having appeared with the B-side, González played his first match as a professional, coming on as a substitute for Iker Guarrotxena in the 62nd minute of a 0–1 away loss to Ponferradina for the Segunda División.[4] and thus becoming the second-youngest debutant for the club.[5] He scored his first goal in the competition on 31 January of the following year, but in a 2–3 away defeat against Albacete Balompié.[6]

Real Madrid

González signed with Real Madrid on 25 July 2017, being assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B.[7] He made his competitive debut for the first team on 31 October 2018, replacing Marco Asensio and scoring the final goal in a 4–0 victory at UD Melilla for the Copa del Rey's round of 32.[8] His maiden La Liga appearance took place the following 13 January, when he played the entire second half of a 2–1 away victory over Real Betis after coming on for the injured Karim Benzema.[9]

Udinese

On 19 July 2019, González signed a five-year contract with Udinese Calcio of the Italian Serie A.[10] On 13 August, however, he returned to his home country after agreeing to a one-year loan deal at SD Huesca.[11]
