Tottenham Hotspur, who will be without Dominic Solanke for six weeks, Everton, Bournemouth and Fulham have all asked for updates on the Republic of Ireland international,

who is valued at £75million after breaking into the Premier League in 2022-23, while West Ham and Arsenal are also believed to be interested in Ferguson. 

Hurzeler, speaking at his press conference today about Ferguson’s future, said: “It’s very important that we talk about these things internally, that we know the player’s view.

“The way of Brighton & Hove Albion is to get young players in, try to improve them. He is from our academy. Of course, we see his potential, but it is also important that he gets enough game time to develop and to improve.

“Therefore, it’s always a decision we make together. We want to hear his opinion, his thoughts. We want to hear also his needs, his wishes and then it is also the club’s side. Then it is about making the right decision together. Honestly, I don’t know yet.”

However, he has not emerged as a regular in Fabian Herzeler’s plans and has found himself at the bottom of the first-team picture, making just 14 appearances in all competitions this season, mostly as a substitute. He is keen to play more regularly and Brighton will consider loaning him out if they believe they have enough back-up, with Joao Pedro, Danny Welbeck and Giorgino Rutter among the club’s top options.
