Football career

Having emerged through Athletic Bilbao's prolific youth ranks, Lezama, Bergara made his first team - and La Liga - debut on 25 February 2007, replacing Josu Sarriegi during a 0–3 away loss against FC Barcelona, but spent the vast majority of his stint at the club with the reserves.

In the 2008 summer, Bergara was released and joined Basque neighbours Sestao River Club, in the third division.
