Chelsea talks to Brighton about a deal to sign Facundo Buonanotte, Talksport understands.
The blues originally followed an approach on behalf of her owner group Blueco to move a potential step to Strasbourg.

But Brighton does not want to leave Buonanotte permanently and plan to just sanction a loan.
Chelsea is already in the process of completing the change for the player, who can either play as an attacking midfielder or as a right wing player.
Leeds ended the signing of the Argentine after she had agreed to a deal for him, but this step has now collapsed.
Instead, he will join Blueco after loaning last season in Leicester City.
BUONANOTTS came from Brighton to the Foxes last summer and played 35 games in all competitions.
During this magic he scored six goals and scored three templates.
Back in Brighton, the 20-year-old, was present in two preparation games, but has not yet played in any of her Premier League games.
And now he is approaching a departure from the Amex Stadium.
BUONANOTTS by Blueco followed the footsteps of a strange deal for his Seagulls teammate.
Blueco, which is headed by Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly, agreed to sign Julio Enciso permanently for Strasbourg with a long-term view so that he arrives at the Stamford Bridge.

Familiar career path
Buonanotte is the latest in a long series of players transferred from Brighton to Chelsea.
As already mentioned, Enciso could be determined, and that comes after Joao Pedro did this in the early summer.
Pedro went from The Amex in July with a large money contract worth 60 million pounds to Stamford Bridge.
Moises Caicedo broke the British transfer record in 2023 by joining Brighton from Chelsea after two of his teammates did the same.
Marc Cucurella joined the blues in 2022 and Robert Sanchez followed him in the same transfer window as Caicedo.
It was also not just a player, and manager Graham Potter and his employees left the south coast for London three years ago.

Who could move Leeds for the time being?
Since Leed’s Buonanotte misses, even though they are so close, they now have to strive for other options.
Daniel Farke was looking for a further quality of attack, but time is running out on Monday with the deadline.
Leeds were associated with Leicester Bilal El Khannoussa all summer, but another step has to be taken.
The whites were also tipped back to return to the club with an offer for Tottenham’s Manor Solomon.
Reports claim that they are also interested in Krasnodars Eduard Spertsyan and Strasburg’s Dilane Bakwa.
Leeds and all other clubs in England have on Monday evening until 7 p.m. to get potential offers over the line.
