Club career

He was a youth player at Rimini prior to joining the youth academy at Torino FC before returning to Rimini. [2]

On 12 July 2018, Berardi joined Serie C club Monopoli on loan for the 2018–19 season. [3]

On 14 August 2019, he signed a two-year contract with Vibonese. [2] [4]

On 4 July 2021, he moved to Ancona-Matelica. [5] On 20 January 2023, Berardi's contract with Ancona was terminated by mutual consent. [6]

He had returned to Vibonese by the 2024-25 season. [7] [8]

International career

Berardi represented San Marino in various youth football teams. [9] Berardi made his first appearance for the San Marino national football team in a 2018 World Cup qualifying 1–0 loss to Azerbaijan. [10] He scored his first international goal in a 3–1 loss to Kazakhstan during a qualifying match for Euro 2020. [11]

On 20 November 2023, he became only the third player to ever score multiple goals for San Marino, registering his second goal in a 2–1 loss to Finland in the final match of Euro 2024 qualifying. He scored a third goal on 20 March 2024 in a 1–3 loss to Saint Kitts and Nevis. [12] [13] [14] It was the first occasion San Marino had scored a goal in three consecutive matches and moved Berardi into the position of his nation's joint-second highest scorer. He expressed his joy by being quoted as saying "If someone had told me years ago that I would score a couple of goals on the international stage in a San Marino shirt I would have taken them for a fool, I would not have believed them." [15]
