Diego Buonanotte has a limited number of days left in River Plate. In a surprising revelation heard a few days ago, it looks like this young striker will be joining Sunderland of the England’s Premiership League. A few weeks ago, Diego was set to sign for Mexico’s Cruz Azul, but Sunderland’s offer enticed the Millonario to go to England.Diego Buonanotte has expressed in the past that he would like to play in a more competitive league, and withSunderland’s offer, he might have his chance come January.
In the initial start of the season, his departure seemed imminent but nothing went through. With Sunderland’s interest in the young star, he may be leaving River as soon as January of next year. River president, Jose Maria Aguilar, was convinced by River’s presidential candidates to not sell the player. This action broke any relationship with another club and any deals fell through. With River needing the cash for next season, all roadblocks have been put aside.
