Club career
Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Guillermo joined Athletic Bilbao's youth system in 2003. Seven years later he was promoted to the reserves, in Segunda División B.
After scoring six goals in only seven appearances for the B's in the beginning of the 2013–14 season, Guillermo was called up to the first team by coach Ernesto Valverde.[1] On 21 October 2013 he was included in the squad for a 2–0 La Liga home win against Villarreal CF, but did not leave the bench; on 9 November he finally made his debut in the competition, starting and playing 68 minutes in a 2–1 win over Levante UD also at San Mamés.[2][3]
Guillermo scored his first goal for the Lions' main squad on 23 February 2014, coming on for Iker Muniain in the 79th minute of an eventual 2–0 success at Real Betis and netting through a header after 60 seconds.[4]
