R. Bennett is a 22-year-old full-back at Fleetwood Town, rated 30.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 142nd of 254 on scout potential in the League Two and 1554th of 1759 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (42.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.83 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bennett.

Judged on this season alone, Bennett graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 40 of the 40 full-backs in the League Two, on 3 clean sheets and 1.828 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 13). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 22nd of 40 of the 40 full-backs in the League Two. At 22 Bennett is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 3.2 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 42.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.83 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.8, Bennett carries the 22nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the League Two of 40 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
