Hamann says Kop deal not for Ferguson
McIlroy dismisses rival’s optimism
EVAN Ferguson has been told he needs to find regular first-team football with his next move.
The Ireland striker could yet seal a loan move from Brighton in the January transfer window, although his latest injury woes have cast a cloud over those prospects.
The Meathman is recovering from an ankle injury, with Seagulls boss Fabian Hurzeler saying that he faced “some more weeks” on the sidelines.
Arsenal and Liverpool could move to secure the 20-year-old on a shortterm deal, but former Anfield midfielder Didi Hamann has warned that Ferguson should steer clear.
“Evan Ferguson had an injury which kept him out for a long time which certainly didn’t help but he’s a hugely talented player and he’s got to be playing games now,” Hamann told BestOffShoreSportsbook.org.
“I think he’s at a stage now that coming on for 10 or 15 minutes is simply not enough. I think there are a lot of teams, including German teams, who will probably look at him as a potential signing.
“He has been linked with a loan to Liverpool but would he definitely play? I think Arsenal are lacking a player like Ferguson but sitting on the bench would do him no good. He needs to join a team in which he is certain to play.”
