Diego Buonanotte


Name: Diego Buonanotte
Team: River Plate (Argentina)
Birth date: 19.04.1988
Nationality: Argentina
EU Passport: Yes (Italy)
End of Contract: 06.2010
Estimated Yearly Wage: 200.000 €
Estimated Market Value: 3.500.000 €

Position: Winger/Forward - Is playing literally everywhere in attack. Has played as winger, as an inside midfielder and also as a forward. Needs to find exactly where he suits best and it seems that would be as a free winger or a free offensive midfielder.

Potential (0-10): 9 - Buonanotte hasn’t yet achieved a top level and he might never get there if he doesn’t find the right place to develop his football. But he has enough talent and very rare qualities, which makes him a player with tremendous potential.

Physical description: 160 cm, typical argentine “pibe”, or even smaller. Buonanotte is very fast and has in his capacity to change directions a very powerful weapon to complement his technique. This capacity is also important because he’s a very light player, having obvious trouble when physically challenged.

Technical description: His quick movement is only a threat because of the quality of his left foot. Very good technique, specially running with the ball always very close to his feet. Buonanotte is obviously strong on 1x1 situations but is a bigger threat when he comes inside and gets the opportunity to make quick passing combinations. He has very good passing, crossing and accurate finishing. This makes him a good goalscorer as well, but he’s only particularly dangerous finishing inside the box, as his long range shooting often lacks power.

Tactical description: Is very strong playing between defensive lines, creating various passing solutions to the player that carries the ball. When playing wide, can be a menace coming inside from the right flank, getting angle for his left foot finish. But he needs to become a more consistent player, finding the right position for him and then adjusting his movements and decisions to it. Right now he’s playing in too many positions and with too much tactical anarchy which is preventing his football to develop as it could.
