Rónald Alfonso González Brenes (born 8 August 1970, in San Carlos[2]) is a Costa Rican former professional footballer and current manager.

Club career

González made his professional debut for Saprissa on 14 July 1989 against Uruguay de Coronado[3] but left them to move abroad and play for Dinamo Zagreb in Yugoslavia. He also had a short spell on loan at Vorwärts Steyr in Austria.[4] He returned to play for Saprissa and won almost everything he could pursue, as the team's captain. During the late 1990s and early 2000s, he starred for the Comunicaciones of Guatemala where he was captain and champion of the Guatemalan tournament several times as well. In his playing days with Saprissa, he won five national championships and three CONCACAF Champions Cup, and was part of the team that played the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship Toyota Cup, where Saprissa finished third behind São Paulo and Liverpool.[5]

He played a total of 318 games for Saprissa, scoring 26 goals.[6] He retired in October 2006.[7]

International career

He played for Costa Rica at the 1989 FIFA World Youth Championship in Saudi Arabia where he scored a goal against Colombia.[5]

González made his senior debut for Costa Rica in a May 1990 warm-up match against Poland, just ahead of the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy. There, at 19 years of age, he scored a goal against Czechoslovakia, becoming the youngest player to score a goal in that World Cup.[5] He earned a total of 65 caps, scoring 5 goals[8] and represented his country in 19 FIFA World Cup qualification matches[5] and at the 1991 CONCACAF Gold Cup[9] as well as at the 1993 and 1997 UNCAF Nations Cups.[10] Also, he was his country's captain during the 1997 Copa América[11] and was a non-playing squad member at the 2001 Copa América.

His final international was an August 2000 friendly match against Venezuela.
