Club career

Béranger was born in Nice. After starting out professionally with AS Cannes in the lower leagues he moved to Spain in 2005, playing three seasons in its second division, two of those with CD Numancia. In 2007–08, he was one of the Soria team's most utilised players as they returned to La Liga after a three-year absence.
On 16 May 2008, Béranger signed for RCD Espanyol who paid his buyout clause. He made his league debut on 30 August by playing the entire 1–0 home win against Real Valladolid, but also struggled with some injuries and, late into the campaign, was involved in a training incident with teammate Carlos Kameni.
Béranger returned to the Spanish second level after 21 competitive games at the RCDE Stadium, being loaned to UD Las Palmas. In July 2010, one month shy of his 29th birthday, he was definitely released by Espanyol, resuming his career in the same tier with CD Tenerife.
After retiring, Béranger remained in Spain and worked as a youth coach at his last club Elche CF.
