Brighton forward Ferguson joins Roma on loan
Brighton and Ireland forward Evan Ferguson has joined Serie A side Roma on a season-long loan, the clubs announced on Wednesday.
Ferguson, 20, burst onto the scene as a teenager, scoring 10 goals for Premier League club Brighton and making his international debut in the 2022/23 season.
He scored a hat-trick against Newcastle as an 18-year-old but his career has stalled due to loss of form and injury.
In total he has made 80 appearances for Brighton, scoring 17 goals, but has scored just one goal at club level since November 2023.
Ferguson spent the second half of the last campaign on loan with West Ham, where he made eight appearances, failing to score a goal.
"AS Roma are delighted to announce the signing of Evan Ferguson from Brighton and Hove Albion," said the Serie A club.
"Ferguson will join Roma on loan with an option to buy."
Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler said: "Evan had a challenging period across the past season and a half, and it has been one disrupted by niggling injury issues, which hasn't allowed him a run of games.
"He is over those injuries and has come back in great shape. Now he really wants to play regularly. This is an exciting opportunity in a strong league and with the prospect of European football."
