Enzo Pérez says Benfica duo are elite: international quality | OneFootball

Enzo Pérez, a former Benfica player, assessed the quality of some of the compatriots who currently represent the club from Luz. The Argentine highlighted two names he considers particularly outstanding.

Despite going through completely different moments this season, Enzo Barrenechea and Gianluca Prestianni earned special praise from the Eagles’ former midfielder. The opinion of the former Argentina international leaves no doubt about the quality he sees in the pair.

"Prestianni and Enzo are very good players, of national team level. Benfica have a good squad for this season", he said in an interview with Record, placing the two players on a high level and highlighting the importance of Argentine talent in the Reds' squad.

At present, Barrenechea is unavailable to Marco Silva while recovering from left knee surgery undergone in September. Prestianni, meanwhile, is going through a very different spell, after seeing his good form at Benfica rewarded with a call-up to the Argentina national team — and he scored against Burkina Faso.
