Leeds United are set to confirm the arrival of Brighton top player within days,
The Argentine journalist, with his own podcast and over 40,000 subscribers on YouTube, shared that the loan move should be formalised shortly
Daniel Farke will be looking for new options for his squad after failing to name a full bench against West Brom due to injuries and transfer sagas rumbling on.
He wrote: “In the coming days, confirmation of the arrival of Facundo Buonanotte to Leeds on loan is expected.”
With Joe Rodon the only current Premier League loanee in the squad, it is smart to dip into that market again, and where better to do so than Brighton?
The Seagulls have a phenomenal scouting department, especially in South America, and Buonanotte is widely tipped to be the next big thing at the AMEX.
Roberto De Zerbi has used the young attacking midfielder numerous times in the top flight, and he did score his first goal last season, as well as adding an assist in 565 minutes.
Leeds are crying out for a new number 10, and Buonanotte could be the flair that is needed by Farke, who will be looking for someone in the same ilk as Emi Buendia, who he had at Norwich.
The talks of outgoings have not stopped all summer, and it is about time that incomings take centre stage with this squad more than threadbare.
The 49ers have kept media links to a minimum, but let’s hope Buonanotte is the first, but not the last arrival this week ahead of the trip to Ipswich.
In other Leeds United news, the Whites need to table a ‘Convincing’ bid to sign a striker as EFL rivals’ stance emerges on his sale this summer.
