Brighton’s Evan Ferguson is generating significant interest in the January transfer window, with Arsenal, Chelsea, West Ham, Bournemouth, and Everton all reportedly exploring a move. Brighton chairman Tony Bloom is reluctant to sell the 20-year-old, valued at £60 million, but is considering a loan deal. Despite his immense potential and comparisons to Alan Shearer and Erling Haaland, Brighton's recent injury concerns with Danny Welbeck and Joao Pedro may delay Ferguson's departure.
- Proven Talent: Ferguson has scored 13 goals in 27 Premier League starts, showcasing his prolific nature despite injury setbacks.
- Loan Option: Brighton prefers a loan move rather than a permanent transfer this January.
- Competition for Signature: Arsenal and Chelsea remain attentive, while West Ham, Bournemouth, and Everton have made contact regarding a potential loan deal.
- Brighton's Hesitation: Injuries to other forwards could keep Ferguson at Brighton for now, but talks remain open for a late-window deal.
