César Carlos "Chalaca" Gonzales (born 17 July 1956) is a Peruvian football coach and former player.

Playing career

A former central defender, he is known for his bicycle kicks, and for them received the nickname "Chalaca," which is the Peruvian Spanish term for the bicycle kick.[1] González retired from playing at the age 27, having played for Alianza Lima and Sporting Cristal.[1]

Managerial career

Chalaca Gonzales has extensive experience as a youth coach. As the coach of Peru's U17 and U20 national teams, he is one of the founders of Academia Cantolao, a renowned institution in Peru for discovering and developing young talent.[2]

However, his name remains most closely associated with Sport Boys of Callao, which he managed on several occasions in the 1990s and with which he came close to winning the Peruvian championship in 1998.[3]

In 2012, he reached the Copa Perú final with Alfonso Ugarte de Puno, but his team lost to UTC in two sets (0–2 and 3–2).
