Career

González progressed through the Newell's Old Boys ranks.[3][4] He never made a competitive appearance for them, but was an unused substitute for Primera División fixtures with Vélez Sarsfield and Arsenal de Sarandí in 2013.[2] January 2016 saw González join Primera B Metropolitana team Estudiantes.[2] He made his senior debut on 10 April in a 3–0 loss away to Deportivo Español.[2] Five more appearances arrived in the 2016 campaign, which preceded a further sixty-seven across the next three seasons - which culminated with promotion in 2018–19, as González also scored for the first time versus Sacachispas on 18 May 2019.[2]

After one goal in sixteen encounters in the 2019–20 Primera B Nacional for Estudiantes, González departed on loan in August 2020 to Primera División side Godoy Cruz.[2] Diego Martínez selected him for his top-flight debut on 2 November, as he featured for the full duration of a loss away against Rosario Central.[2][5][6][7]
