BBC NEWS; Leicester City fans are saying the same thing about Facundo Buonanotte after ‘terrific’ moment vs Bournemouth.

On Saturday, Leicester City hosted Bournemouth at the King Power Stadium for a Premier League encounter.

The Foxes have had a difficult transition back to the top division, and they are still looking for their first win of the season.

Leicester City dropped to 17th position in the Premier League rankings after losing 4-2 to Arsenal. They were only above the relegation zone because they scored more goals than Crystal Palace, who lost to Liverpool in the early kick-off.

Steve Cooper’s job is under peril if his team fails to win against the Cherries.

Leicester were expected to lose against Bournemouth at the King Power Stadium, extending their winless streak to seven games.

Leicester City supporters react to Facundo Buonanotte

However, Leicester seized the lead on Saturday afternoon with only 16 minutes remaining.

Facundo Buonanotte scored a fantastic goal after James Justin dinked the ball over an opposing defender on the right side. He cut inside and beat a player.

Following the Argentine’s opening at the King Power, Leicester supporters have heaped praise on the forward on social media.

One fan remarked, “I hate to say it, but I’ve fallen in love with a loan player. Buonanotte is incredible.”

Another Leicester supporter commented, “I am a big fan of Buonanotte, he’ll come on a lot for a season’s worth of full 90s.”

A third fan said, “A fantastic goal from Buonanotte.” He put up a wall, entered the area, feinted Senesi, and fired a powerful left-footed shot. “Great goal.”

After his goal, one fan claimed that Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has a lot of work to do to get back into the team ahead of the South American: “Fatawu Issahaku has a lot of work to do because this Buonanotte guy is going to be a problem for him.”

Some supporters even sent a clear message to Leicester City, encouraging them to sign Buonanotte permanently from Brighton and Hove Albion.

One said, “I don’t care if Brighton doesn’t want to sell. Offer them anything they need to acquire Buonanotte.”

A other person responded: “No chance we’re able to pry Buonanotte off of Brighton is there.” A third just wrote, “Pay whatever Brighton want.”

Can Leicester City Sign Facundo Buonanotte Permanently?

The 19-year-old has made an impressive start at the King Power Stadium after joining on loan from Brighton for the season.

Buonanotte received strong acclaim for his performance in the Arsenal defeat and continued to do so on Saturday.

He has already scored two goals and assisted two in his first six Premier League games for Leicester, who would undoubtedly want to sign him to a permanent contract.

But given his evident potential, it’s hard to imagine the Seagulls parting ways with him. However, if Cooper’s side survives, they may be able to persuade Brighton to sell if they pay enough money.
