However, Foxes coach Ruud van Nistelrooy outlined the terms of the loan deal this week.
Asked by reporters of Brighton had no option to bring back Buonanotte, and that the decision was Leicester’s, he stated: "Yes, correct."
Van Nistelrooy indicated that he would be counting on the young winger until May.
Buonanotte’s absence from the team in a recent game had fans concerned about whether his loan was being cut short.
