No, nowhere at all does it state Madara has the same or better genjutsu prowess as Itachi, that is your assumption alone. Itachi was said by his own father to be different, Chiyo who fought countless Uchiha said he was different/special/dangerous for an Uchiha. He was capable of beating Orochimaru at age 15 by himself with Genjutsu and a Kunai alone, he is not any ordinary Uchiha and he isn't some inexperienced noob. He has fought Uchiha himself and Kisame who has a fuck ton of chakra said that he couldn't beat Itachi, Kisame also alluded to the fact that Itachi could beat Jiraiya as when they were retreating he said it shouldn't be necessary for Itachi at least. Madara, Izuna, Itachi, Sasuke are the top Uchiha period with Obito and Shisui under them, every other Uchiha is average compared to them.
