Jorge González Díaz, aka Yordi (born September 14, 1974 in San Fernando, Cádiz), is a Spanish football striker currently playing for Córdoba CF, in the Spanish second division.
[edit] Football career
A journeyman, Yordi represented during his career Sevilla FC, Atlético de Madrid (although he spent the vast majority of the season with the B team, winning the Pichichi award), Real Zaragoza (where he stayed for seven seasons, one in the second level, being a major offensive contributor, mainly off the bench), Blackburn Rovers, Getafe CF, Real Mallorca and Xerez CD. During his time at Blackburn he came off the bench as his team won the 2002 Football League Cup Final, he also scored two Premier League goals against Southampton and Middlesbrough.
In Xerez, in 2007-08, Yordi was the league's topscorer at 20, as the Andalusia side barely avoided relegation, while also adopting Jorge as his shirt name. That summer he left for another side in the region, Córdoba CF.
