Tottenham 'impressed' by Facundo Buonanotte and could try in 2025
Tottenham Hotspur, like many other clubs in Europe, has invested money in teenagers who have shown high potential. Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall are proof of their forward planning, while there is also a Hotspur Way academy product joining the first team, Mikey Moore.

The 19-year-old has three goals and two assists in the Premier League this season and is becoming an increasingly attractive prospect in the English top flight.
Spurs are said to be “impressed” with the Argentine teenager and would be interested in signing him from their parent club Brighton & Hove Albion. Leicester City, however, also remain interested in his permanent acquisition. the seagulls value it at £41 millionwhich given the demand that exists, could be a reasonable price.
Another promising player on the Spurs radar
TEAMtalk has mentioned that Facundo Buonanotte is on Tottenham's wish list as a possible long-term replacement for Son Heung-min. The South Korean's contract extension has been activated until 2026, but considering his age, Spurs must make plans for the future. That said, the 19-year-old could be worth it. transfer fee.
Naturally an attacking midfielder, he has played a slightly deeper creative role in midfield and also on the right wing. His adaptability at such a young age, particularly in the first divisionIt's an attractive attribute, as is his goal tally. The player is also very good with the ball at his feet and therefore promises to be a worthy successor for Son as well.
There is no word on whether Leicester City's loan deal with Brighton includes any option to buy, but the Foxes are already interested in making his transfer permanent, so Tottenham will face stiff competition. However, they can offer Brighton and Buonanotte better financial terms and, as a result, Spurs could take an early lead.
