Italy’s famous club Roma has strengthened its squad with a talented new striker. According to the club’s press service, young Irish forward Evan Ferguson has joined from Premier League side Brighton on loan. The deal allows Ferguson to spend the season with Roma, and the club also has an option to buy him outright.
20-year-old Evan Ferguson will wear the number 11 shirt for Roma and is expected to prove himself at the highest level. Although the exact duration of the loan was not specified in the official announcement, this move opens new opportunities for the player’s career. According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Roma will pay €40 million (approximately 524 billion soums) for the transfer, making it one of the club’s most expensive signings in recent years.
Ferguson made his debut for the Irish national team in November 2022 and has scored four goals in 18 appearances. He is highly rated for his youth, technical ability, and versatile attacking play.
Interestingly, since February 2024, Ferguson had also been on loan at London’s West Ham United, where he appeared in eight matches. This gave him valuable experience in the Premier League. According to Transfermarkt, Ferguson’s current market value is €25 million.
Roma’s new striker stands out with his strong physical presence, intelligent play, and ability to perform on the big stage despite his young age. His arrival will increase competition in the attack and give fans fresh hope for the new season.
Experts see this transfer as a strategic move for Roma and proof of the club’s commitment to nurturing young talent. With Ferguson’s arrival, the Giallorossi are aiming for new heights in the upcoming campaign.
