The best player Evan Ferguson has ever played alongside, according to the Brighton attacker, is Alexis Mac Allister of Liverpool.
Ferguson has been identified as a future superstar due to his performance for Brighton. The Irishman, who is just 19 years old, is reportedly already a target for teams like Manchester United and Liverpool.
Furthermore, based on some of his remarks made to TalkSPORT today, the Reds may hold the upper hand in their pursuit of signing Ferguson.
When asked to select his all-time favourite teammate, the youthful attacker chose a man who currently dons Liverpool red.
“I would say Alexis,” the child answered. Although he has obviously moved on to Liverpool, I still enjoyed playing with him because he would constantly look forward and search for that incisive pass.
Ferguson extols Mac Allister with gusto.
Ferguson’s amazing start to the season has somewhat tapered off as he recently developed a little niggle.
The Ireland international is still extremely young, but he will definitely be a quality player.
He’s already been praised by players like Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk, and it seems likely that he won’t be at Brighton for very long.
But the Seagulls will make sure they get a huge, huge price when he does leave. According to sources, they intend to pocket up to £100 million for Ferguson [Sky Sports].
Evidently, Liverpool doesn’t typically part with that type of cash, especially for a youngster that young.
But they can always ask Alexis if they need any proof of just how good the Brighton man truly is.
The No. 10 for Liverpool didn’t play with Ferguson too often, but he clearly left an effect. Maybe the Reds will go forward if the admiration is reciprocated.
Ferguson’s remarks should serve as a more urgent reminder of Mac Allister’s high rating.
He might have begun to falter a little bit for Liverpool, but with time, he will undoubtedly begin to live up to these encouraging remarks.
