González began his professional career with Chilean club Colo-Colo in 1998. After four years with them, he joined Atlante for the 2002 Apertura ("Opening"). González scored 13 goals in 19 games in the Apertura, and added another 16 in 16 games in the Clausura ("Closing"). The next season, he scored six in the Apertura, and eight in the Clausura. In Mexico, he became popular both for his prolific goal-scoring, as for his celebrations mimicking the Mexican comedic character "Chespirito".
