Although his father had always been “more of handball”, Berenguer he remembers in an interview in the official Athletic magazine that “I always carried a soccer ball under my arm”. At the age of ten he signed for Osasuna, where he remained until he was 21. It is not surprising that he says that his best friend in this world is “David Garcia”.
The last rojiblanco signing shares the names of the players from whom he takes notes. “I have paid much attention to Neymar, by position, by its ability to unbalance. I love trying things with the ball. Then this Messi, that he is of another level and a role model as a footballer ”, he comments.
And, as for the coach who has left the most mark on him, he has no doubts. “I am clear that in my career the most important has been Martin Monreal. He's the one who gave me the opportunity and told me to my face that if I wanted to be a footballer, I had to wake up. It forced me to work hard on defense. I am in contact with him and I appreciate him very much. He visited me in Italy. On the bench it is a volcano, it shouts a lot, but it is a piece of bread ”, he highlights Berenguer.
