West Ham likely to sign Evan Ferguson on loan this January

Brighton: Evan Ferguson has not been able to shine at Brighton this season. As a result, he is looking to go on loan, with West Ham being the top choice. Sources say that Brighton’s manager, Fabian Hurzeler, likes Ferguson but wants him to improve in training first.

Since things are not expected to change soon, Ferguson plans to leave on loan in January. Brighton is reportedly open to this move and will not block his exit. West Ham has shown interest in bringing him on board, but they may face competition.

Other Premier League teams, including Newcastle, Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, and Arsenal, are also interested in Ferguson. While these clubs have expressed interest, West Ham appears to be the most serious about signing him.

Brighton has set a price of £60 million for Ferguson, showing they might sell him permanently. However, they prefer to loan him out first and then discuss a permanent deal if a good offer comes in.

Ferguson has only scored one goal this season, which reflects his lack of confidence. This situation likely explains why he wants to prove he can do much better. If moving to another club helps him grow in his career, he is ready to take that step.
