We hold a single season for Bontempo, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 65, top 10% of the 63 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 21 Bontempo is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Bontempo missed 4 games through injury (ankle, inactive) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

4.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 65, Bontempo carries the 6th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A (top 10%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
