Bernardo José Espinosa Zúñiga (born 11 July 1989), known simply as Bernardo, is a Colombian professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Sporting de Gijón as a central defender.
Club career
Born in Cali, Bernardo finished his football formation in Spain with Sevilla FC. After appearing in one game for the B-team in the 2007–08 season (five minutes) he proceeded to play a further three full campaigns with the B's, one in the second division and two in the third, only starting regularly in his last.
Bernardo made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 11 May 2011, playing 90 minutes in a 2–3 away loss against CA Osasuna.[1] In the ensuing summer he was loaned to fellow top divisioner Racing de Santander, in a season-long move.[2]
Bernardo scored his first top flight goal on 7 January 2012, heading home the game's only in a home win against Real Zaragoza.[3] On 26 December, after not featuring at all for the Andalusians in the first half of 2012–13, he was loaned to Sporting de Gijón in the second level.[4]
On 26 June 2013, Bernardo remained tied up to the Asturians, after signing a permanent three-year deal with the club.[5]
