Emilio Benito Docente (born 11 December 1983) is an Italian footballer.
He spent entire career in Italian lower divisions, from Serie B to Seconda Divisione, and mostly in Prima Divisione (second, fourth and third highest level)
Born in Sicily, Docente was a product of Gela's academy. In January 2003 he was signed by Serie B team Messina. After the season, he was sold to Rimini in co-ownership deal, where he scored 12 Serie C1 goals in 2 seasons, winning Serie C1 Group B in 2005. In June 2005 Rimini bought the remain 50% registration rights from Messina and on 31 August loaned to fellow Serie B for Avellino. In January 2006 he returned to Italian third level, for Sambenedettese. He spent 2006–07 Serie C1 at Ancona. Docente returned to the city of Rimini on 1 July 2007, replacing departed Alessandro Matri as the third striker of the team, behind Daniele Vantaggiato and Jeda (Giuseppe Greco since January). He only made 1 start in 17 Serie B appearances. In the next season Greco departed at the start of season and Vantaggiato in January 2009, which Docente had more chance to play. The team had poorer attack and defence than previous season, slipped from the 7th to 18th and relegated. Docente scored 6 Serie B, the highest among his Serie B seasons.
Docente added 12 more league matches to his Rimini career before left on loan to fellow Prima Divisione team Perugia. Despite both teams finished as mid-team (losing side of promotion playoffs and 11th respectively), both team failed to pass financial tests and expelled from professional league.
