Christian Benteke
Al Wahda(UAE)/F/
BelgiumPlayer Info
Christian Benteke, the powerful Belgian striker now with Al Wahda in the UAE, is a classic target man who has terrorized defenses in the Premier League for nearly a decade. At his peak with Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, his combination of immense physical strength, aerial dominance, and surprisingly good technical hold-up play made him one of the league's most unique forwards. He scored spectacular goals and was a constant threat from set-pieces. A regular for the Belgian national team during their golden era, Benteke's career has seen him adapt his game as he has aged. Now 35, his move to the Middle East allows him to continue leveraging his experience and formidable presence in the penalty area.
