  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 41.1, Benedetto carries the 37th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the 3. Liga of 94 — though on just 0 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.67 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.
