Club career
Bermúdez has had a previous stint with Atlante from 2006 to 20011. He can play as a forward and a midfielder. He is known as "The Hobbit" because of his short stature.
On 18 December 2013 Bermúdez was transferred to Querétaro FC.[6]
On 4 June 2014 Bermudez was transferred to Chiapas during the Apertura 2014 Mexican draft.
He played with Atlético Veracruz of the Liga de Balompié Mexicano during the league's inaugural season, leading them to a runners-up finish after losing to Chapulineros de Oaxaca in the finals.[7]
International career
During the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, Bermúdez, and four other members of the Mexico National Team, tested positive for the banned substance of Clenbuterol and were withdrawn from the team's tournament squad.[8] However, all players were exonerated as FIFA determined that the accused had accidentally ingested the banned substance through contaminated meat that had been served during a pre-tournament training camp.[9]
However, World Anti-Doping Agency appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to request a ban.[10] But on 12 October 2011 WADA withdrew this request after the full file was available for them.[11]
