David González Ballesteros (born 22 June 2002) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Burgos CF.

Career

[edit]

Born in Burgos, Castile and León, González played for hometown side Burgos CF and CD Numancia before joining Real Madrid's La Fábrica on 21 June 2019.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 24 April 2021, coming on as a second-half substitute for Peter González in a 2–0 Segunda División B away loss to Extremadura UD.

On 2 June 2021, González renewed his contract with Los Blancos, being definitely promoted to Castilla in Primera División RFEF,[2] and was called up to the pre-season with the main squad in the following month.[3] On 26 July 2022, after just four starts during the 2021–22 season, he was loaned to fellow third division side CD Numancia for one year.[4]

González immediately became a starter with the Numantinos, but suffered a knee injury in November 2022 which kept him sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.[5] Back to Castilla in July 2023,[6] he was mainly a backup option.

On 16 July 2024, González returned to his first club Burgos, signing a three-year contract and being assigned to the main squad in Segunda División.[7] He made his professional debut on 18 August, replacing Álex Sancris late into a 3–1 home win over FC Cartagena.[8]
