Scout report
L. Benedetti is a 26-year-old central midfielder at Virtus Entella, rated 53.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 173rd of 397 on scout potential in the Serie B. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (66.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.57 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Benedetti.
Judged on this season alone, Benedetti graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 49th of 79 of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.573 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 11 → 15). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 54, top 40% of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B. At 26 Benedetti is in his prime years, and a market index of 21.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Virtus Entella finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 66.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 53.6, Benedetti carries the 31st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie B (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Virtus Entella finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
