A Candid Chat: Alex Berenguer Talks Football, Life, and Future Goals with Gerard Piqué
Gerard Piqué: Hey Alex, it’s fantastic to finally catch up with you! I’ve been following your career closely ever since you moved to Torino. How’s life treating you these days?
Alex Berenguer: Hey Gerard! Life’s good, thanks for asking. Torino was great, but moving to Athletic Bilbao has been an incredible experience. The passion from the fans here is just something else, you know?
Gerard Piqué: Absolutely, San Mamés has a vibe that’s almost unmatched. But tell me, how did you adjust to the Basque culture and style of play?
Alex Berenguer: It wasn’t easy at first. The intensity here is no joke. But the community and the teammates were super welcoming, which made the transition smoother. Plus, the food here is amazing, man! Pintxos for the win!
Gerard Piqué: (Laughs) Oh, I hear you! I’ve had my fair share of pintxos on trips to Bilbao. Speaking of intensity, your performance has been stellar. That clutch goal against Levante—what was going through your mind?
Alex Berenguer: That match was crazy! At that moment, all I could think was, “Just hit it right!” The adrenaline takes over, and before you know it, the ball’s in the back of the net. It’s surreal, really.
Gerard Piqué: That’s the magic of football. Speaking of which, any particular goals or milestones you’re aiming for this season?
Alex Berenguer: Definitely. I want to help Athletic Bilbao secure a top spot in La Liga and hopefully make a deep run in the Copa del Rey. On a personal level, I’m working on improving my assist record and scoring more goals, of course.
Gerard Piqué: All excellent objectives! Switching gears a bit, how do you unwind off the pitch? Any hobbies that keep you grounded?
Alex Berenguer: I’m a pretty low-key guy. I love spending time with family and friends, playing video games, and occasionally, I dabble in a bit of cooking. It’s a good stress reliever.
Gerard Piqué: Video games, huh? We’ve got to have a FIFA showdown sometime! And cooking—nice! What’s your signature dish?
Alex Berenguer: It’s a deal on the FIFA match! As for cooking, I make a mean paella. It’s not easy, but the result is totally worth it.
Gerard Piqué: Paella? Impressive! I’ll need to try that someday. Last question before we wrap this up—dream club or country you’d love to play for, if not Athletic or Spain?
Alex Berenguer: Great question, Gerard. I’ve always admired the playing style of clubs like Barcelona and international teams like Argentina. But honestly, I’m happy and focused on making a mark right here at Athletic Bilbao.
Gerard Piqué: Love to hear that! Well, Alex, it’s been great chatting with you. Best of luck with your season ahead. Let’s catch up soon, and don’t forget the FIFA match!
Alex Berenguer: Thanks, Gerard! It’s been a pleasure. Looking forward to that game—and dinner’s on me after I win!
