Brighton & Hove Albion manager Roberto De Zerbi has spoken about Evan Ferguson.
Ferguson is a favorite of the Seagulls, having joined the club during the 2020/21 season from Irish side Bohemians. After initially playing for the youth team, he was included in the first team roster ahead of the 2021/22 season. He made four appearances and one assist in his first season.
The following year, Ferguson gradually adapted to the senior game. Last season, he made a name for himself with 10 goals and three assists in 25 games. His early performances this season have also been good, notably a hat-trick against Newcastle United in the fourth round of the English Premier League (PL).
He also made history when he opened the scoring against Fulham in the 10th round of the PL. According to Goal.com, he became the first teenager since Wayne Rooney to score 10 or more goals in the PL in a single year (second half of the 22/23 season, first half of the 23/24 season).
There were reports that several big clubs were interested in Ferguson, but Brighton were unwilling to part with their top prospect. Last November, Ferguson signed a new contract with Brighton until June 2029.
But since then, he's been in a serious slump. Since November, he hasn"t found the back of the net in 21 games. Recently, he suffered an ankle injury. He"s likely to miss the rest of the season.
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi has spoken out about 먹튀검증 Ferguson"s injuries and lack of form. "You have to make a difference between injuries and your career," he said. "You can"t control injuries. The process of development is different."
"You have to accept that a young player, who is only 19 years old, can have a good moment with a goal and then the opposite can happen. It's a difficult moment, especially for a striker," he said.
"A striker can be scoring two goals in a game. And then suddenly you can't score with your hands. This is soccer. It can happen to young players. You can be good one season and not be good the next," he defended.
Despite the slump, De Jervi said Ferguson is the future of the team. "We have to analyze the injuries so we can plan," he said. Ferguson is definitely the future of Brighton," he said.
Meanwhile, De Jervi commented on the injuries that have plagued the team this season: "This season has been difficult, we've had so many injuries to key players. But the season is not over," he said.
"We would have liked to compete in a different way in the last three months, but we have to accept what has happened. We've been through a tough period and it will give us more experience."
