Chelsea getting closer to Facundo Buonanotte’s loan agreement while Leeds Move collapses

Chelsea gets closer to an agreement on a loan decision for Facundo Buonanotte after Leeds United saw their movement for the collapse of the midfielder striker of Brighton & Hove Albion.

Leeds reserved a flight for Thursday afternoon to bring Buonanotte to the West Yorkshire, but he never climbed on board.

Brighton had been in talks with Leeds for a loan move which maintained the Argentinian international in the Premier League, which would guarantee local status from January. The new high -level arrivals were convinced that an agreement was in place with the club and the player, with a medical reserved for the arrival of Buonanotte.

However, the Champions of the Club World Cup who now seem ready to sign Buonanotte, who recorded six goals and three assists in 35 games on loan to Leicester City last season.

Chelsea looked for an offensive midfielder and was interested in a move for Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig, which has now agreed to Tottenham Hotspur. Fermin Lopez de Barcelona had been another target for Chelsea, who expects Christopher Nkunku to join AC Milan.

Buonanotte’s move would represent the last of a long line of transactions between Chelsea and Brighton. Joao Pedro moved in the same direction earlier this summer, while Moises Caicedo, Robert Sanchez and Marc Cucurella have made the same movement in the past. Graham Potter and other members of the staff of the back-shop changed between the canoes in September 2022.

Julio Enciso is another Brighton player who talks about a move to the Chelsea sister club, Strasbourg – The Ligue 1 team also owned by Bluco – who could also see it at Stamford Bridge in the future.

The collapse of the 11th hour of the Leeds agreement leaves them unless options when approaching the transfer date. Daniel Farke did not hide his desire to see attackers before Monday at 7 p.m. BST.

Bilal El Khannouss, Dilane Bakwa, Eduard Spertyan and Manor Salomon are all players that Leeds are known to have an interest.
