Club career

Libertad

Born in the Paraguayan capital of Asunción, González played futsal as a child.[2] He began his footballing career with Libertad, making his professional debut on 4 September 2022, coming on as a late substitute for Álex Campuzano in a 1–0 loss to Cerro Porteño in the Paraguayan Primera División.[3]

He scored his first goal for the club in the following season, the first in a 4–0 win against Resistencia on 17 April 2023. Following the game, Libertad manager Daniel Garnero compared him with compatriot Julio Enciso, stating that "Julito (Enciso) is the jewel and Enso is the diamond".[4] His second goal for the club came in the same month, against Nacional, on 29 April; having started the match, he received the ball from Héctor Villalba on the edge of the penalty area, and cutting in from the right, he skipped past two Nacional defenders before rifling the ball into the top right-hand corner.[5] In July 2023, he was named by the International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES) as the fourth most experienced under-19 winger in the world.[6]

Wolverhampton Wanderers

The following month, he was linked heavily with a move to English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers, with American sports journalism website The Athletic claiming that a deal had been agreed worth €6 million.[7][8] On 31 August 2023, the move was confirmed by Wolverhampton Wanderers, and González signed a five-year deal with the West Midlands club.[9]
