Guillermo Franco (born 21 May 1983 in Buenos Aires) is a retired Argentine football defender.
Football career
After playing for Los Andes and Defensa y Justicia, Franco joined Godoy Cruz in 2002. He played with the team in the Argentine Primera until 2009, when he dropped down a division to play for Independiente Rivadavia one season on loan. He returned to Godoy Cruz in 2010, but was immediately loaned to Atlético de Rafaela.
