Berger was first-choice in his last two years with Académica, netting four league goals combined in the process. During January 2009 he went on a trial period with Hibernian from the Scottish Premier League, and his agent later claimed that a loan deal had been agreed between the clubs with Hibs having the option to buy the player at the end of the season for £500,000, but the move was not completed. On 30 December 2011, after nearly 100 official appearances for Académica, Berger penned a three-year contract at Ukrainian Premier League team Football Club Chornomorets Odesa.
At the start of March 2014 he left his team due to the civil unrest caused by the 2014 Ukrainian revolution, going on to sign for Norwegian Premier League club IK Start late into that month.
On 6 April he made his debut against FK Haugesund in a 3–1 success, in which he also scored his first goal for his new team In June 2014, after only a few months in Norway, Berger moved to the Russian Premier League with Football Club Ural Sverdlovsk Oblast.
However, this would only last a few months and in January 2015, he would return to Portugal signing with Gil Vicente, a deal valid until the end of the season. Berger agreed to a one-year deal with Communicative Disorders Tondela in early July 2015, after suffering team relegation.
