Born in Mariano Roque Alonso. González joined Rubio Ñu's youth setup in 2009, from Cerro Corá. He made his first-team – and Primera División – debut on 9 December of that year, starting in a 2–1 home win against 12 de Octubre;[4] at the age of 15 years, becoming the club's youngest ever first-team player.[2]

González scored his first senior goal on 19 September 2010, netting the opener in a 2–1 away defeat of Sportivo Trinidense.[5] He would subsequently feature regularly for the first team in the following campaigns, as his side went on to establish themselves in the first division.

Benfica

[edit]

On 10 October 2011, González agreed to a deal with Portuguese club Benfica, joining the club ahead of the 2012–13 season.[6] Upon arriving, he was initially assigned to the under-19 squad in the Campeonato Nacional de Juniores.

In 2014, Benfica announced that González, together with compatriot Cláudio Correa, were sold to Master International FZC for €1.72 million.[7]

Loan to Guaraní

On 12 February 2013, González was loaned to Guaraní until December.[8] On 24 May 2013, González was referenced in the Spanish newspaper Marca as a future star, following the steps of Ángel Di María, who moved from Benfica to Real Madrid.[9]
