Brighton & Hove Albion sends Argentinian midfielder Facundo Buonanotte to Spanish club Elche on a season-long loan. The move takes the 21-year-old playmaker away from Brighton again as he continues regular playing time through temporary transfers.
Buonanotte joined Brighton in January 2023 after signing from Rosario Central. Since then, he has spent multiple spells on loan rather than featuring consistently for the Premier League club. Outlets note that this is his fourth loan move since joining Brighton, with time previously spent at Leicester and with loan periods split between Chelsea and Leeds.
The Athletic adds that Buonanotte has been away from Brighton for much of the past two seasons on loan deals, underscoring that he is currently not part of Brighton’s long-term plans. The outlets align on the player’s age, position, and Argentina background, including his experience with Argentina at senior level.
