Tomás González fighting for his place at Unión | OneFootball

Tomás González will face his trial by fire at Unión. The Río de La Plata Series appears as a key stage for the winger to play his cards and prove that he can fight for a spot in the squad led by Leonardo Madelón.

The decision is neither casual nor improvised. The difficulties in reinforcing the position forced a look inward. Lanús rejected the loan request for Lucas Besozzi, an effort that did not succeed and left Unión without one of the alternatives they had in mind to add imbalance on the outside. In this context, the coach decided to take Rayo González to Uruguay and give him competitive minutes.

Madelón had already been observing him, but now the challenge will be different. The Río de La Plata Series will serve as a football exam, where the coaching staff will evaluate his performance, his impact in demanding matches, and his ability to become a concrete option within the squad.

González is a club asset and knows the path. Although in recent years he has had to leave several times to the Primera Nacional, in each of those experiences he achieved continuity, contributed imbalance, and showed consistency, virtues that today put him back on the radar.

The question hovering over Unión is clear: has the time come for Tomás González to stay permanently? The answer will begin to be written in Uruguay. With the ball at his feet and the backing of having performed well when given the chance, the winger knows that this time is not just another opportunity: he is playing for his place at Tate.
