Daniel "Dani" González Güiza (Spanish pronunciation: [daˈnjel ˈɣwiθa]; born 17 August 1980) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Atlético Sanluqueño CF.
A late bloomer, he made a name for himself at the age of 27, being crowned La Liga top scorer with Mallorca. Subsequently he helped the Spain national team win Euro 2008, and signed with Fenerbahçe in Turkey shortly afterwards.
Over the course of eight seasons, Güiza amassed Spanish top division totals of 141 games and 52 goals, mainly with Mallorca and Getafe.
Having started playing on the streets of his hometown of Jerez de la Frontera in Cádiz, Güiza used to hide behind trees in an attempt to avoid the running, despite being then coached by boyhood idol Kiko, who begun his professional career with local Cádiz CF. He eventually made it into his local club Xerez CD and, after one season there, first showed his eye for goal at Segunda División B side Dos Hermanas CF, loaned immediately after RCD Mallorca bought him. Such performances saw him make his debut in La Liga for the latter at the age of 19, but he would fail to perform, being relegated to the reserves.
