Alexander Clas Robin Gerndt (born 14 July 1986) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a striker.

Alexander Gerndt scored his first goal for the Sweden national team against Botswana, scoring the 1–0 goal in a game that ended with a 2–1 win for the Swedish team.

Gerndt has gone through a divorce with his wife My, and they have two children together. Gerndt is very popular among fans of his former teams in Helsingborg as well as Gävle. He has talked about his big interest of tattoos and he has said it's like an obsession. "Once you’ve started, you can’t stop; you are always looking for what the next tattoo project can be." Gerndt was also a survivor of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami.

In December 2011, Gerndt was handed a suspended jail sentence and fined 80,000 SEK for assaulting his ex-wife My. This handed him an indefinite ban from the Swedish national team, as decided by the Swedish Football Association (SvFF). However, the suspension from the national team was lifted on 27 April 2012. Both Gerndt and the prosecutor of the case decided to appeal the sentence on 3 January 2012. Gerndt considered himself not guilty while the prosecutor originally was appealing for a three-month jail sentence.
