Playing Style Analysis

A Box-to-Box. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90), active in the tackle (2.4 tackles/90), wins the ball cleanly (1.8 successful tackles/90), heavily involved in play (58 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.7 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions. The three most similar players to Benja Cremaschi by playing style are:

• Raoul Bellanova(86% match) — Bellanova has carved out a quietly efficient niche at Inter as the industrious connector who keeps possession ticking without ever demanding the spotlight. His 89.1% pass accuracy places him in the top fifth of Serie A midfielders, and a 56.3% duel win rate suggests he competes effectively at ground level—two traits that underpin his value as a reliable ball-mover in tight spaces. Here's the counterintuitive part: his key passes per 90 sit above the league average, meaning he's actually more progressive in the final moments of build-up than his modest assists tally implies—the creativity is there, the finishing touch simply isn't his job.
• Fabio Miretti(86% match) — Miretti is the rare academy product who graduated from Juventus's shadow and found his voice in the chaos of a mid-table Serie A environment. At just 544 minutes of data, the sample is partial—but what it reveals is striking. His assists rate lands in the top 5% of Serie A midfielders, a figure that flatters him only if you ignore the equally elite press intensity and shot volume sitting underneath it.
• Nicolò Fagioli(85% match) — Fagioli is the kind of midfielder who makes a possession system hum without ever demanding the spotlight. His 90.7% pass accuracy and 2.51 key passes per 90 both rank in Serie A's top 5% among midfielders—numbers that suggest not just tidiness, but genuine creative authority in the final third. His 8.91 passes into the final third per 90 puts him comfortably in the top 10%, which is where the real story lives: the assists figure looks modest, but Fagioli is consistently threading the needle before the last action, not after it.
