During his prime, Lentini was considered a highly talented prospect, known for his pace, mobility, work-rate, physical strength, intelligence and leadership. Although he was usually deployed as a left winger, he was capable of playing on either flank. He was highly regarded for his creativity, his excellent technical ability, agility, speed, balance, and his dribbling skills, as well as his crossing ability, which made him an extremely effective attacking threat on the wing, and allowed him to beat opponents in one on one situations and subsequently provide assists for his teammates.

Lentini was married to Alexandra Carlsson, a model from Sweden; their son, Nicholas, was born in 1996. Nicholas plays as a goalkeeper.
