Evan Ferguson News

Brighton & Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson is reportedly being considered for a loan move to another Premier League club during the January transfer window. Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler has stated that the decision will be made based on what is best for the player's development and the club's interests. Ferguson, who has struggled with form and fitness after an ankle injury last season, has scored only once in 12 Premier League appearances this season, mostly as a substitute. Clubs such as Arsenal and West Ham, which is currently dealing with injuries to key strikers, have been linked with the 20-year-old Republic of Ireland international. Brighton has a history of loaning young players, including Facundo Buonanotte to Leicester City last summer, to aid their development. Hurzeler emphasized that the Premier League offers a challenging environment for growth. Ferguson, who signed a contract extension in November 2023, could benefit from a loan move to regain form and confidence while securing more regular playing time.
