At the weekend, TyC Sports reported Rosario Central have received an offer of €4m from Brighton & Hove Albion for Facundo Buonanotte.
It was also explained the Argentine club would demand for more money if the Seagulls insisted on signing the 17-year-old.
Olé explain Buonanotte will be a new Brighton player and they will pay a possible $12m to Rosario Central. He will arrive at The Amex in January 2023.
The South American side will receive a $6m fixed fee and can double that amount if the conditions for the variables agreed between the two clubs are fulfilled. Rosario Central will also receive 20% of the fee from a potential future sale.
“They confirmed the sale, I’m happy because it happened and I’m very grateful to Rosario Central, which is the club I love. It is for the good of my family and for my own,” he said.
“They told me that everything was already agreed. It doesn’t happen every day that a Premier League club looks for you. We fought until the end for the good of the club and of us.”
When asked about Brighton, Buonanotte explained: “I’m at Central today and I’m going to respect the club until the last day. I can say thank you to the fans for all the love and support they gave me.”
