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 1–0 away loss to Ponferradina in 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 3–2 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 in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.[8] His maiden La Liga appearance took place the following 13 January, when he played the entire second half of a 2–1 away defeat of 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] scoring six competitive goals during his spell for the second division champions.[12][13]
González played his first official game for Udinese on 28 October 2020, coming off the bench in a 3–1 win over L.R. Vicenza Virtus in the third round of the Coppa Italia.[14] He returned to the Spanish second tier on 10 December, joining CD Mirandés on loan until the end of the season.[15]
On 28 August 2021, González moved to Real Valladolid on loan for the upcoming campaign.[16]
