Loaned to Leicester Buonanotte has been loaned to Leicester City from Brighton, his new club announced.

Impact Buonanotte will remain in the Premier League but not with his parent club this season, having joined the Foxes on a season-long loan.

The attacker will more than likely serve in anywhere from a rotational to a starting role, as he does hold decent talent and can be a decent contributor down the flank if given space to work with.

Impact It looks like De Zerbi will mix things up Wednesday on a short week, at least at one position.
