Brighton signing Facundo Buonanotte revealed that Alexis Mac Allister's brother urged him to sign for the club.

The 18-year-old played with the older sibling of Alexis Mac Allister in Argentina last season.

Buonanotte, an Argentina Under-20 international, made his Premier League debut for Brighton on Saturday against Bournemouth.

“Francis just told me it was a really good club to make this big step to Europe," Facundo said to the club website.

“He told me they would help me a lot and they would treat me in the best way.

“Alexis and all the South American boys have been helping me settle in. They have treated me very well.

“Brighton has a really nice group and that's important. The togetherness of the group is the fundamental factor to having a good season."
