Clean sheets

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.

Game time. Only 41.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 49.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~20), then tapers with age. At 26, Benedetti sits on 19.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Benedetti's projected Rating — 49.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
