Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Philippine name Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox football biography Alfredo Fernando Razón "Freddy" Gonzalez (born 1 October 1978 in Parañaque) is a Filipino former football player. He is the current national teams director of the Philippine Football Federation and the current team manager of the Philippines national team.

Early years

Gonzalez's mother, Terry Razón, enrolled him to Tomas Lozano's Makati Football School (MFS) at age six. He later became the high school football star of Colegio de San Agustin. Gonzalez earned himself a soccer scholarship to the University of Portland, then considered one of the most professionally run (football wise) and well coached university teams in the US. He stayed there for two years (1998/99) and honed his offensive skills playing for the Portland Pilots, the school soccer team.

Club career

Learning the game from Spanish expatriate, Tomas Lozano, Gonzalez tried out with French club Calais RUFC coached by Ladislas Lozano, Tomas' brother, in 2000. Gonzalez trained in France for two weeks but was sidelined due to a torn hamstring. By the time he was recovered from injury, Lozano had already accepted a coaching job in Morocco.

Due to impressing team manager Nguyen Tien Huy of the V-League club Ngân hàng Đông Á (East Asian Commercial Bank FC) for his play for the Philippines in the 2002 Tiger Cup in Jakarta, Gonzalez signed a one-year contract with the club in January 2003.

He also played for Komodo AS of Indonesia in 2004, being the only active Filipino professional player at that time. He was a part-time player in Europe and also played for Kaya in the Philippines. Unfortunately, right after his contract with the Vietnam professional club expired Gonzalez retired from playing football, concentrating more into his interest in surfing and other business ventures such as bringing in the Brazilian flip flops brand Havaianas into the Philippines.Шаблон:Citation needed

In January 2012, for the first time in almost half a decade of retirement, he played for Pachanga. He scored in his debut in the 4-0 win against Agila in the opening match.

In the mid of June 2012, he led the team to the championship in Division 2 having 123 goals in the league. He won the Division 2's Golden Ball and Golden Boot Awards together with teammate Kenneth Dolloso, which won the Best Goalkeeper Award.

Loyola

On January 7, 2013, Gonzales transferred to Loyola before the start of 2013 PFF–Smart National Championship knockout stage and UFL 4th season.

International career

Gonzalez made his debut for the Philippine national team in the 1997 South East Asian Games. He then played in the then "ASEAN Tiger Cup," (now Suzuki Cup), in Vietnam in 1998. He has, since then, represented the country in South East Asian Games (particularly the 1999 SEA Games in Brunei), in the Tiger Cup, and in any other invitational and qualifying tournaments.
