He took advantage of his chance!
In the final phase of the game against RB Leipzig (5:2), VfB youngster Samuele di Benedetto (18) celebrated his premiere in the Bundesliga, coming on as a substitute for Enzo Millot (21) in the 84th minute.
During the preparation, di Benedetto, who has been playing for VfB since the U15, impressed on the number six with commitment, passion and his fine left foot.

A blessed talent!
And the midfielder immediately showed what he can do against Leipzig. There was praise from coach Sebastian Hoeneß (41): “He worked for it and did well on the pitch. This is a special, beautiful day for him. But it’s important that he sticks with it.”

Born in Schwäbisch Gmünd, 40 kilometers from the MHP Arena, di Benedetto is the new “local hero” at VfB. The German junior international with Italian roots otherwise plays for the U21s in the regional league (17 appearances, four assists).
Without the four VfB national players who are currently playing in the African and Asian Cups, di Benedetto took advantage of the chance to play in the Bundesliga. And he wants to follow his short appearance against Leipzig with many more.
