Bayer Leverkusen have reportedly expressed interest in signing Brighton’s young striker Evan Ferguson on loan, as the German club prepares for the possible departure of Victor Boniface to Al Nassr.
20-year-old Republic of Ireland international Evan Ferguson, is in high demand, with several Premier League clubs, including West Ham, Bournemouth, and Everton, as well as Bayer Leverkusen and Marseille, seeking a loan or permanent deal.
Earlier reports indicated that Brighton had rejected a permanent offer from a Premier League club, preferring a loan deal instead. However, recent reports suggest that Brighton is now open to selling Ferguson permanently if the right offer is made.
According to Brighton correspondent Andy Naylor, the premier league side is willing to consider permanent offers for Ferguson if the terms are favorable to both the club and the player.
