On loan from Brighton, the Argentine Facundo Buonanotte19 years old, is the best player in City of Leicester and one of the most promising young talents in the Premier League. Many compared him to his compatriot Leo Messi. His time at the Foxes may have been short, but the midfielder has had an exceptional start to the season. “No, I’m not the Messi of the Midlands, but I’ll give everything for this team,” he said in an interview with ‘The Telegraph’.

“I’m not Messi, no, impossible. He was my idol when I was a child, my absolute hero. I’m only 19 years old and he’s already played many important derbies in Barcelona against Real Madrid,” he says. And he added, convinced: “It would be disrespectful to Messi to make a direct comparison”, although their playing styles are very similar. “At 37 years old he is still the best player in the world.”

Buonanotte, who is from Santa Fe like Leo, explained that “I feel more comfortable and comfortable playing free behind the 9, but if I have to choose the perfect position to start between the center and the right, entering from the right have the freedom to move with the ball I don’t like to consider myself just a 10 or a 7, but something in between.
