Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

Álex Berenguer is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Athletic Club, rated 40.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 301st of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (63.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.75 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Berenguer.

Judged on this season alone, Berenguer graded 31 — a strong campaign that ranks top 28% of the 87 central midfielders in the La Liga, on 2 goals, 3 assists and 1.747 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 42 → 31). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, 72nd of 87 of the 87 central midfielders in the La Liga. At 31 Berenguer is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 15.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Berenguer missed 6 games through injury (injury, toe, groin) out of roughly 38 this season. The 31 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

1.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 63.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.4/100).

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.75 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 40.6, Berenguer carries the 72nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga of 87. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
