Of course we’ll see him again. He’ll be part of our CL squad next season

[Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**
- Thread starter macbeth
- Start date
The point being that we didn't sell him - or anyone else - to a rival. I don't see us doing it in future either - though who knows?
P.S. I did enjoy all the Free Ben White stuff though!

Indeed. I also enjoyed the free Ben White stuff, especially when it became clear to Leeds fans that he was, actually, really going to leave them and return to the club he was registered with. That was good fun.

The best bit was when we gave him shirt #3

Don’t think so.
No. Long-term thinking has got us to where we are today; let’s stick with that strategy.
This video was rather interesting,

We're in the pipe, 5 by 5
We loaned Shane Duffy to fellow PL club, Fulham.
Worth noting that the OLDEST member of our midfield three, who just won at Newcastle, turned 21 earlier this month
True, I'd forgotten that - not quite a development loan though, was it? More an attempt to see if he could do for Fulham what he did for Celtic! At the least, a get-him-off-the-books type loan. Wonder why they made the loan permanent - must have been an obligation to buy in the deal?

This loan is working out very nicely indeed.
Next season's squad is going to be even stronger.

Not according to the good folk on Foxes Talk. Apparently he will never play for Brighton again. He will either sign permanently for Leicester (because he loves them so much) or he will sign for Real Madrid or Man City.
It's all getting a bit Ben White on Foxes Talk

To be fair to them, most of the fans on there are realistic saying we'd be mad to send him back or let him go yet.Not according to the good folk on Foxes Talk.

They're not as deluded as the Leeds lot, despite having achieved far more than them in recent years.
They're quite certain hes better than Rutter though.

They've probably seen more of Rutter than we have yet, TBF.

I feel a bit awkward about making fun of fans that fall in love with our outgoing loanees after the whole Levi Colwill thing.
But yes, there are definitely shades of Ben White/Leeds coming from some people on the Leicester forum right now. Most seem pretty circumspect though, I was surprised to come away from their forum thinking "they seem like a decent bunch" (doesn't often happen when I read other team's forums).

Unlikely, he’s only faced them twice.
Scored the winner in one of those two games though so clearly bitter!

Not with Danny Welbeck, they haven't.

We should never have let him go, I really was not a fan of this loan, he was always going to shine and his head turned
