Guillermo Gonzalez - Definition and Overview

Guillermo "Memo" Gonzalez (born January 4, 1986 in Paramount, California) is an American soccer player, who currently plays midfielder for the Los Angeles Galaxy in Major League Soccer.

Gonzalez graduated from the Bradenton Academy in 2003 (the same class as Eddie Gaven and Freddy Adu) and became one of the youngest players in MLS history to be drafted when the Galaxy chose him as a Project-40 player with the eight overall pick of the 2003 MLS SuperDraft. Guillermo spent most of his first year in the pros with the Under-17 US national team, playing at the Under-17 World Championship in Finland.

In two years in MLS, Gonzalez has not seen much playing time due to youth team commitments and a cluttered Galaxy midfield. He's only played in 12 games, and only started two of those.
