Nicolás Iván "Nico" González (Spanish pronunciation: [nikoˈlas iˈβaŋ ɡonˈsales]; born 6 April 1998) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a winger for Serie A club Fiorentina and the Argentina national team.
Club career[edit]
Argentinos Juniors[edit]
After over ten years in the club's youth system,[3][4] González made his professional debut for Argentinos Juniors in a 2015–16 Copa Argentina defeat to Deportivo Laferrere of Primera C Metropolitana in July 2016.[2] He made his Primera B Nacional debut on 28 August against San Martín prior to scoring the first of his four goals in 2016–17 on 23 April 2017, getting the winner against Atlético Paraná.[2] In total, González made twenty appearances in 2016–17, a season which ended with Argentinos winning promotion to the Argentine Primera División.[2][5][6] He scored on his first top-flight start, scoring the opening goal in a defeat to Belgrano.[2]
VfB Stuttgart[edit]
On 10 July 2018, González signed a five-year contract with VfB Stuttgart.[7] He scored twice on his unofficial debut for the club, netting in a friendly victory over FV Illertissen on 18 July.[8] His first competitive goal arrived during a home loss to Schalke 04 on 22 December.[2] They were relegated at the end of 2018–19, with González subsequently scoring the winner on his 2. Bundesliga bow against FC St. Pauli on 17 August 2019.[9] He scored consecutive braces in June 2020 against Sandhausen and Nürnberg, the latter of which was his 100th league appearance for Stuttgart.[2][10]
On 25 November 2020, González extended his contract with VfB Stuttgart until June 2024.[11]
Fiorentina[edit]
On 23 June 2021, González signed a five-year contract with Serie A club Fiorentina until 2026.[12] On 13 August, González made his debut for Fiorentina in a 4–0 win against Serie B side Cosenza in the first round of Coppa Italia scoring the second goal in the 37th minute.[13] On 18 May 2023, González scored a brace in Fiorentina's second leg UEFA Europa Conference League semi-final victory against Basel, sending his side to the final against West Ham United.[citation needed]
International career[edit]
In July 2019, González received a call-up from the Argentina Olympic Team for said year's Pan American Games in Peru.[14] After receiving a red card on his debut against Ecuador,[15] he played again in the semi-final and the gold medal match when Argentina won the tournament.[2] Months later, González was selected by Lionel Scaloni's senior team for the first time ahead of October friendly matches against Germany and Ecuador.[16][17] He did not feature in the matchday squad against Germany, but appeared for his international bow during a 6–1 victory over Ecuador at the Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero in Elche on 13 October.[2]
González scored his first goal for Argentina on 12 November 2020 in a 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Paraguay that ended in a 1–1 draw.[2][better source needed] He netted again days later against the same opponent.[citation needed]
González was a member of the 2021 Copa América winning side, making five appearances in the tournament, four as a starter and one as substitute in the final against Brazil. He was also called up to Argentina's 2022 FIFA World Cup squad, but was forced to withdraw with a muscular injury three days before the start of the tournament, being replaced by Ángel Correa.[18][better source needed]
