Iriome González González (born 22 June 1987), known simply as Iriome, is a Spanish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

He amassed Segunda División totals of 416 matches and 34 goals over 15 seasons, mainly in service of Lugo (eight years) and Tenerife (four).[3]

Club career

Born in Icod de los Vinos, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Iriome was a product of CD Tenerife's youth system and made his first-team debut in 2006–07, in the Segunda División; aged 19, he managed to play 20 matches during the season and score four goals, his first appearance in the competition being on 14 January 2007 in a 0–0 away draw against UD Salamanca.[4] His first goal came 14 days later, as he contributed to a 2–1 home win over UD Almería.[5]

After featuring rarely in the 2008–09 campaign as the club returned to La Liga after seven years (only 12 appearances out of 42),[6] Iriome signed with another side in the second tier, SD Huesca, on loan.[7] He continued to compete in that league for several seasons, with Villarreal CF B, CD Mirandés[8] and CD Lugo.[9][10][11]

International career

Iriome represented Spain at the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[12][13]
