Brighton & Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson is the subject of transfer talks with Torino, as the Italian club looks to bolster their attacking options. The 21-year-old, who spent the 2025-26 season on loan at Roma, is no stranger to Serie A, having scored five goals in 22 appearances before an ankle injury cut his campaign short. Brighton are willing to listen to offers for the Republic of Ireland international, who has been out of the first-team picture for the past season and a half.
Despite his limited goals in Serie A, Ferguson showed promise at Roma before his injury. He netted four goals in his final eight games. Per Fotmob, his per-90-minute stats included 0.35 goals, 3.13 shots, and 1.74 chances created. Torino believes he could thrive with consistent starts.
With Danny Welbeck’s departure to Chelsea, Brighton may need reinforcements if Ferguson leaves. The Seagulls finished 8th in the Premier League last season (53 points, 14W-11D-13L) and will compete in the Conference League. However, Ferguson’s injury recovery timeline (October) and limited first-team role make him expendable.
Torino remains interested despite Ferguson’s injury, seeing long-term potential. Brighton may prioritize signing a new striker before finalizing any sale. The transfer window closes in a few weeks, leaving little time for negotiations.
