The 1.74 meter tall left foot Buonanotte can be used variably both in the center and on the right wing. His contract with the Premier League club Brighton is dated until 2028. Last season, the Argentinian, who switched to the Seagulls from his training club Rosario Central in January 2023 for 6 million euros, was awarded to Leicester City. A total of 13 scorers in 71 games in the English Oberhaus are available in a total of two -time national players. Buonanotte’s market value has more than doubled since the switch to the island within the past two years. He is currently being estimated at 20 million euros, which makes him one of the most valuable professionals in his year in his home country.

According to “Sky”, the Youngster has been on the list of potential new additions to the black and yellow, as a “young, developable player”, he fits into the prey scheme, attested reporter Patrick Berger on Wednesday. Accordingly, the contact was made on the part of the Dortmund. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano had previously reported on the parties of the first discussions. Buonanotte is an alternative to the previous loan Carney Chukwuemeka, which the Chelsea FC only wants to sell and do not want to lend it again. According to Romano, Olympique Lyon is also supposed to be part of the offensive midfielder at the front.

In the transfer market rumor mill, a possible transfer of Buonanotte will be discussed a lot on Wednesday. “His season in Leicester was not really convincing. He is still young, but Brighton will certainly not betray him. I would be looking forward to the modalities,” wrote the user “BVB 09”. And “Reds1993” let you know: “If so, then I can only imagine a loan. You will only sell it for a price that BVB is willing to pay for a player. (…) Dortmund would, I think he would help as a loan. I already see him better than Brandt, especially because he works much more against the ball.”

“L’équipe”: 18-year-old Guye from FC Metz in BVB focus

Meanwhile, “L’équipe” reports that the 18 -year -old center forward Gueye is also a potential transfer goal of the Dortmund. The Senegalese international made a name for himself with six scorers in 17 league games within half a year in France and co -responsible for the rise of the club from the northeast of the Republic. The competition for BVB is anything but small, several European clubs are said to have extended their feelers after the young attacker.

In Metz, Gueye still has a contract until 2029, and his start market value of 1.5 million euros only received in March 2025 was recently raised to 4 million euros.
