Manchester United Eyeing £50M Move for Brighton’s Evan Ferguson

As the transfer window nears its closure, Manchester United are reportedly considering a move for Brighton’s Evan Ferguson.

Reports suggest that the 19-year-old Republic of Ireland international has long been on United’s radar.

With growing concerns that rivals Chelsea might snatch up the budding talent, United’s urgency has only intensified.

Ferguson was signed by Brighton from Bohemians and has shown significant potential despite a challenging season last year due to injury.

His performance at Brighton has made him one of the Premier League‘s most promising young talents, despite his struggles to secure a regular starting position.

United’s need for a striker has grown more urgent.

Rasmus Højlund is sidelined with a hamstring injury until late September, and new signing Joshua Zirkee is still acclimating to the Premier League’s pace and physicality.

Manager Erik ten Hag is running out of viable options.

Though Ivan Toney was considered, at 28 years old, he doesn’t align with United’s current strategy of focusing on younger players.

Ferguson grew up as a Manchester United supporter and fits well into the club’s plans for a long-term addition.

However, Brighton is in a strong negotiating position with Ferguson under contract until June 2029, meaning they would likely require an offer of over £50 million to consider selling.
