Summarised by MatchPal
Prestianni has matured into a key attacking player for Benfica after his racist incident with Vinicius last season, now delivering goals and assists regularly.
Gianluca Prestianni has rebuilt his reputation at Benfica following last season's racist controversy with Vinicius Júnior in the Champions League. The Argentine winger has become a disciplined, mature player and a decisive attacking force for the Portuguese club. He provided two assists in Benfica's Europa League win over Celtic on Thursday and has scored five goals with three assists in eight Primeira Liga appearances this season, already surpassing his entire previous campaign output. Prestianni has been called up by Argentina and is establishing himself as a regular for the national team.
