Early career

In 2008, Briseño joined the youth academy of Atlas, successfully going through the U-17, U-20 and Premier sides. First team coach Juan Carlos Chávez eventually promoted Briseño to the first team in 2011.[3]

Atlas

Briseño made his professional league debut with Atlas on September 30, 2011, against Chiapas. He came on as a substitute for Flavio Santos in the 86th minute of the game.[4] During his time at Atlas, Briseño struggled for playing time, and only managed to appear in ten matches for the club.[5]

Tigres UANL

On 1 July 2014, Briseño was transferred to Tigres UANL. He played the second leg of the finals of the Apertura 2015 season, winning his first professional league title. He also made seven appearances in the 2015 Copa Libertadores as Tigres finished runner-up in the competition.

Struggling for playing time, Briseño was sent on loan to Ascenso MX side Juárez in 2015, and in December 2016 he was loaned out to Veracruz for the Clausura 2017 season.

Feirense

On 3 July 2017, Primeira Liga club Feirense announced the signing of Briseño on a two-year contract.[6] On September 30, 2017, Briseño made his debut against Boavista.

On 7 April 2018, Briseño scored his first goal for Feirense in a 2–2 draw against Braga.

In 2012, Briseño was selected to represent Mexico at the 2012 Milk Cup held in Northern Ireland. He captained the squad to the final against Denmark, which Mexico won 3–0.[7][8] Briseño was again selected by coach Sergio Almaguer to be part of the Mexican squad participating in the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship.
