The young Argentinean has made a loan move from the Seagulls to the Foxes ahead of 2024/25 and the Blue Army can be excited about the prospect of watching the winger in action this season.
A cultured left-footed player, often seen drifting in off the right flank, Buonanotte boasts significant Premier League experience for the South Coast outfit, with 40 English top-flight appearances to his name, as well as featuring in the UEFA Europa League last term.
Not afraid to take players on, he also possesses a fierce strike, unleashing several across the campaign, mostly notably at Sheffield United and Chelsea. Buonanotte’s goal involvements included four goals and an assist, an improvement on his 2022/23 showing.
Born in Pérez, a city within the province of Santa Fe, Buonanotte began his youth career at nearby Club Atlético Rosario Central from the age of 10, rising through the ranks to eventually make his first team debut for Canalla in the Argentine Primera Division eight years later.
A little over six months on from signing his first professional deal at Rosario, Brighton swooped to sign the attacking midfielder, impressed by what they had seen during his maiden season at first team level.
Having made his international debut last year, he’s now capped twice by Argentina at senior level, after previously representing the Under-20s side.
Still just 19 years old, Buonanotte is hoping to further enhance his development at King Power Stadium, as Steve Cooper’s squad continues to shape up in preparation for the Premier League season.
