About the player
Samuele Di Benedetto made his Bundesliga debut for VfB Stuttgart on 27 January 2024, against RB Leipzig, having come through the club's academy after joining in 2019. Before that, the midfielder had passed through the youth ranks at TV Lindach, 1. FC Normannia Gmünd and 1. FC Heidenheim. He signed his first professional contract with Stuttgart on 30 June 2022.
Most of his football since has been played one level down: between 2023 and 2026 he made 82 appearances for VfB Stuttgart II, scoring twice. Left-footed and used through the middle of midfield, he holds dual German-Italian nationality but has built his international record with Germany's youth sides, collecting caps at U17, U18 and U19 level.
His contract at Stuttgart ran until 30 June 2026, and he left the club on a free transfer at its expiry. On 19 June 2026, Eintracht Braunschweig announced his signing, and he joined officially on 1 July 2026 on a three-year deal that runs to 2029. He now wears the number 10 shirt at his new club.
