Bravo won promotion in his first campaign with Deportivo Riestra, netting twice in eighteen as they earned a place in Primera B Metropolitana for 2015.[3] Forty-nine games and seven goals occurred in the next two seasons.[2] On 19 July 2016, Bravo was signed on loan by Primera División team Defensa y Justicia.[2][8] His bow came on 10 September versus San Lorenzo, as he featured in what his only league appearance; though he did play in the Copa Argentina.[2] He returned to Riestra for 2016–17 promotion, prior to leaving on loan again in 2017 - to UAE First Division League side Fujairah; managed by Diego Maradona.[9][10][11]
