'To improve the depth' - Farke explains Buonanotte signing

Daniel Farke says Facundo Buonanotte's slow start since joining Leeds on loan was to be expected and has stressed the forward has been brought in to offer depth rather than immediate first-team impact. Buonanotte, 21, joined on loan from Brighton in January and has made three appearances, most recently being withdrawn after 45 minutes of his only start in an FA Cup win at Birmingham. Farke said "expectations" and "excitement" around a signing are always prevalent but he did not expect a fast start from a player who has struggled for consistent football, having spent much of his recent career on loan at Leicester, Chelsea and now Leeds.
