My naive attempt does not show any difference, as I am doing something
wrong.

(setq last-buffer-list nil)

(defun rcd-last-async-buffer (&rest args)
  (let ((last (set-difference last-buffer-list (buffer-list))))
    (message "Last buffer: %s" last))
  (setq last-buffer-list (buffer-list)))

(add-hook 'buffer-list-update-hook 'rcd-last-async-buffer)
