Brighton discusses Evan Ferguson loan options ahead of January window

Brighton & Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson's future remains uncertain as he deals with an ankle injury and the January transfer window nears its close. Brighton's head coach, Fabian Hurzeler, emphasized the importance of discussing Ferguson's potential loan with him, noting that the club values young player development and game time. West Ham's interest in Ferguson has diminished following Brighton's recent loan of Julio Enciso, as the club may now prefer to retain Ferguson for the remainder of the season. Brighton's forward options are limited, with concerns about injuries to existing players like Danny Welbeck and Joao Pedro. The club is weighing the pros and cons of a loan move for Ferguson, considering their need for depth in the attacking line. With the transfer window closing on February 3, the situation is still fluid as Brighton evaluates their roster and player's needs.
