Scottish Premiership club Celtic signed Bernabei in June 2022 for a fee of around £3.75 million.[8][9] He made his competitive debut for the club on 28 August 2022 as a late substitute in a 9–0 win against Dundee United at Tannadice Park in the Scottish Premiership.[10]

On 11 October 2022, Bernabei came on as an 80th-minute substitute to make his UEFA Champions League debut in a 2–0 loss against RB Leipzig at Celtic Park.[11]

On 2 April 2023, Bernabei scored his first Celtic goal against Ross County in the Scottish Premiership.[12]
