In search of a central striker are the Chelsea and Manchester Unitedby Evan Ferguson of Brighton to be a target for both teams.
The 19-year-old Irishman is one of the top talents of his generation and has already caught the eye of the English giants. The information coming from the island states that both groups have attempted to approach her Brightonwhich at the moment does not seem to be interested in selling the footballer.
Chelsea’s main transfer target for the attacking position is Victor Osimen, however Ferguson has long been on the club’s radar as a second choice. At the same time, the possibility of borrowing the footballer until the summer and then deciding on her next move was discussed.
On the other hand, Manchester United it seems that he is one step closer, but the price of acquiring the young Irishman seems prohibitive, at least for the time being.
Brighton have proven that they are tough in negotiations and that they hardly drop their demands. How much more so for such a young footballer who is bound by a contract until 2029.
This year, Ferguson has played a total of 24 times, scoring six goals and one assist.
