Born in Argentina on 24 September 2000, Alexandro Bernabéi is a 24-year-old defender renowned for his effectiveness as a left back. He now plays for Internacional after a whirlwind career spanning multiple continents. Standing a compact 5ft 6in (1.69m) tall and tipping the scales at 10st 3lb (65kg), he's a tenacious presence on the field.
July 2018 signalled the beginning of Bernabéi's professional football journey as he joined Lanus in Argentina's Primera División. His debut season (2019 - 2020) saw him making 13 first team appearances and netting one goal. In the subsequent season (2021), he significantly increased his involvement, making 24 first team appearances. However, by the 2022 season, his time on the field had dwindled to just a single first team appearance.
A significant chapter in Bernabéi's career opened in July 2022 when he was transferred to Celtic in Scotland's Premiership for a tidy sum around £3.8m. In his maiden season (2022 - 2023), he made 15 first team appearances and scored once. Lightening his footprint the following season (2023 - 2024), Bernabéi made only eight first team appearances. He didn't add to his previous season's goal tally but his presence was still felt on the field.
It wasn't until March 2024 that Bernabéi added another string to his bow as he transferred to Internacional in Brazil's Série A on loan. With the curtain still rising on the current season (2024), he's already made 14 first team appearances and struck the goal twice. Beyond his league commitments, Bernabéi also participated in the Copa Sudamericana 2024 for Internacional, being fielded once as a starting player and once as a substitute.
