M. Maita is a 32-year-old defensive midfielder at Benevento, rated 15.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (5.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Maita.

On the season, Maita graded 2 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 26 → 2). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 16. At 32 Maita is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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

  • Defensive volume. 5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 5.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 15.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
