Gonzalo Gil (born September 8, 1989) is an Argentine football striker who plays for Olaria in Brazil.
Gil started playing amateur football with the team of Campo Chico, the gated neighbourhood where he lived with his family.[1] In 2007, a member of the directive board of Argentine Primera División giants River Plate watched him play and asked him to join the club's youth divisions.[2] In 2008, playing for River's reserves, he scored the winning goal in the 1-0 victory over Boca Juniors' reserves in the Superclásico.[1] He debuted with the first team under the guidance of coach Diego Simeone during the 2008 Apertura on a 0-1 defeat to Gimnasia y Esgrima de Jujuy.[3]
For the 2010–11 season, Gil was loaned along fellow River Plate companion Matías Díaz to Chilean Primera División side Ñublense.[4][5]
