Sassuolo also signed Fabrizio Anselmi, Nicolò Consolini, Sebastiano Girelli and Edevaldo Grimaldi, made the defensive line highly competitive.

In 2004–05 Serie C2, Benetti just played 22 times (18 starts), but also played once in the return leg of the promotion playoffs. He was substituted by Consolini (who also played in the first leg).[7]
In June 2005 Vicenza gave up the remain 50% registration rights of Benetti. Benetti only made 13 starts (in 19 appearances) in 2005–06 Serie C2. He missed the first 12 round of the season. Benetti did not play any game in the playoffs. That season the team promoted as the playoffs winner. In 2006–07 Serie C1, Benetti made 18 starts (in 28 appearances). Coach Gian Marco Remondina used Benetti and Piccioni as centre-backs in the 2007 playoffs, losing to former club Monza. In his 3 seasons with Sassuolo, Benetti was suspended 4 times. (2004–05, once[8]) (2005–06, twice, in rescheduled round 21[9] and round 27[10]), (2006–07, once)[11]

Half of the registration rights was subsequently sold to Serie C2 club Bassano, which also located in Veneto.[12] However, he only played 8 times for Bassano. In January 2008, he was swapped with Mario Stancanelli of Sassuolo.[13] However Benetti only played 8 more times for the Emilia club. Benetti also suspended once.[14] (He collected 3 yellow cards with Sassuolo and once with Bassano.) The team won 2007–08 Serie C1 group stage and promoted directly. Coach Massimiliano Allegri used Francesco Magnanelli and Consolini in Supercoppa di Lega di Prima Divisione, winning Salernitana to become the grand champion of the third division.[15] In June 2008 Treviso bought back Benetti from Bassano.
