Managerial career

Bernegger had a brief career in football with Belgrano in Argentina and then Winterthur in Switzerland, but had to retire because of ligament injuries in 1993 at the age of 21.

[4] Bernegger became long-term youth coach for Grasshopper, and after a couple stints at Basel U21 and Luzern rejoined Grasshopper as the head manager in 2016. [5]

On 4 May 2022, FC Thun announced that Bernegger will leave the club at the end of the 2021–22 season. [6]
