"Chelsea have reportedly clinched a deal to sign Facundo Buonanotte on loan from Brighton and Hove Albion. The Blues are set to add the Argentina attacking midfielder to their ranks after missing out on the signing of Netherlands international Xavi Simons, who completed a move to Tottenham on Friday. Buonanotte had looked set to join Leeds United, but will now make the temporary move to Stamford Bridge on a deal that does not include an option to sign the 20-year-old on a permanent deal."
"Buonanotte signed for Brighton in 2023 from Rosario Central. He spent last season on loan at Leicester City and was a bright spot for the Foxes as they suffered relegation to the Championship, scoring six goals and providing three assists in all competitions. Now he joins Chelsea as one of his team-mates gets set to take a controversial step towards potentially doing so in the future."
Chelsea will add Argentina attacking midfielder Facundo Buonanotte on a temporary loan from Brighton that contains no permanent buy option. Chelsea retain the right to match future bids for Buonanotte if Brighton receive offers. Buonanotte joined Brighton in 2023 from Rosario Central and spent last season on loan at Leicester City, scoring six goals and supplying three assists amid the club’s relegation. The move follows Chelsea missing out on Xavi Simons, who joined Tottenham. Julio Enciso is set to move from Brighton to Strasbourg, a transfer that has drawn criticism due to BlueCo ownership links.
