Evan Ferguson, born 19th October 2004 (age 20), hailing from the Republic of Ireland, currently graces the field as a forward for Italian Serie A club Roma. This 6ft 2in (1.88m) player has notable presence, reaching the scales at 11st 11lb (75kg). The number on his back dawns the digits of '11', a number sported by many notable strikers before him. Aside from his club commitments, Ferguson has also had the honour to don his homeland's green jersey, representing the Republic of Ireland at the national level.
As reported by Transfermarkt, the young starlet is estimated to have a market value hovering around €25.00m, which equates to approximately £21.5m.
The young player's senior professional career took flight in January 2019, when he joined Premier Division outfit Bohemian FC in his native Republic of Ireland, as a trainee. Despite his young age, he managed to make an impression and earned himself two first-team appearances in league matches during his debut season in 2020.
In January of 2021, Ferguson swapped his homeland for the shores of England, signing for Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League for a reported undisclosed fee. In his debut season (2021-2022), Ferguson managed only a single appearance but established his presence in the subsequent seasons, tallying a zenith of 27 appearances and six goals for the 2023 - 2024 season. In 2025, he briefly parted ways with Brighton, joining West Ham United for a loan stint where he clocked up eight league appearances.
After his temporary tenure at West Ham, Ferguson returned to the Seagulls in June 2025. However, his spell was short-lived as by July of the same year he headed towards Italy, joining Serie A side Roma on loan. In the current season (2025 - 2026), Ferguson has so far made five first-team appearances in league matches.
His national team journey also deserves a mention. In the World Cup Qualifiers Europe (2024 - 2026), he marked his name on the score sheet twice in two starts. During the Euro Qualifiers (2022 - 2024), Ferguson appeared six times and found the net on two occasions. In addition, the Nations League (2024 - 2025) saw him contribute two goals in five starts and three substitute appearances. Most recently, he also took part in the Europa League (2025 - 2026) for Roma, earning a single substitute appearance.
