Early life

Bernat was born in Morud,[1] a town on the island of Funen. His father, Robert Bernat, is a former goalkeeper who played for B 1909, Næsby Boldklub and Vejle Boldklub.[5][1] He is of Polish descent through his father, whose parents fled to Denmark from Poland after World War II.[6]

Club career

OB

Early career

Bernat started his career for local clubs on Funen, Morud IF and Næsby Boldklub,[4] before moving to the biggest club on the island, OB. He moved to the FC Nordsjælland academy in January 2016, but returned to OB after six months, where he signed a three-year youth contract.[7] Bernat progressed through the youth system and went on a trials with two Premier League clubs; Brighton & Hove Albion in 2017 and Manchester United in August 2018.[8][9] He eventually continued playing for OB, signing his first professional contract – a two-year deal – with the club on 16 March 2019, as he was also promoted to the first-team squad.[10] Bernat signed another contract extension on 29 December 2019, keeping him part of the club until 2024.[11]

First team

Bernat made his professional debut on 8 July 2020, the final game of the 2019–20 season, starting the game against Silkeborg.[12] In the subsequent season, he served as a backup goalkeeper, making three appearances for the professional team in the league. However, during the 2021–22 season, he successfully claimed a consistent starting position from the seventh matchday onwards. Throughout the regular season and the relegation round combined, he played a total of 26 games.[2]

Bernat lost his starting spot in the 2022–23 season, but returned to the starting lineup after Martin Hansen's injury in March 2023.[13] In the following season, he assumed the role of a starter due to another injury to Hansen in October 2023.[14] He showcased impressive performances during the fall period, but was benched again in the spring of 2024, after OB signed Viljar Myhra in January 2024.[15] In April 2024, Bernat announced that he would not extend his expiring contract, and leave OB at the end of the season.[16]

Botev Plovdiv

On 18 June 2024, media reported that Bernat successfully completed his medical and signed a two-year contract with Bulgarian First League club Botev Plovdiv, with an option for an additional season.[17] The following day, his new club confirmed the move.[18]

International career

Bernat has represented Denmark at youth international levels from under-16 to under-19.[19]
