Oreste Benatti (born 11 June 1906 in Mirandola) was an Italian footballer who played as a forward, usually as a winger, although he was also capable of playing as a striker. He was known in particular for his speed, offensive movement, quick feet, technical ability, dribbling skills, and consistency as a footballer.[1]

Benatti played for 4 seasons (94 games, 16 goals) in the Italian Serie A, with A.S. Roma and S.S.C. Napoli, making his debut in Serie A with Roma on 6 October 1929, in a 3–1 defeat to Alessandria. He began his career with Reggiana in 1927 in the Divisione Nazionale (the Italian First Division at the time), before moving to Roma the following season, where he remained for two seasons in total. He also played for Lecce in Serie B during the 1930–31 season, before moving to Napoli for the next three seasons; he also played for Spezia and Trento, before joining Bagnolese in the Italian lower divisions for the final two seasons of his career, retiring from professional football in 1936.[1]
