BrightonGetting closer, still in rehab
Ferguson (ankle) is getting closer but is still in rehab, according to coach Fabian Hurzeler, per The Argus.
Analysis: Ferguson had previously been described as making daily progress in his recovery from ankle surgery, an injury suffered during a loan spell at Roma that required the procedure and ended his season early. His continued improvement is an encouraging sign, and his eventual return remains especially important for Brighton's depth in attack given Danny Welbeck's move to Chelsea.
Making daily progress
Ferguson is making daily progress in his recovery from ankle surgery, according to coach Fabian Hurzeler, per Derren Howard of Sussex Express. "Evan is in rehab, he is making daily progress."
Analysis: Ferguson contributed five goals and two assists across 22 appearances during a loan spell at Roma before a recurring injury required surgery and ended his season early. He is expected to miss the start of the new campaign, and his fitness has come into sharper focus following Danny Welbeck's move to Chelsea, leaving Brighton needing him back as soon as possible for both Premier League and Conference League play.
Heads back to Brighton
Ferguson will return to parent club Brighton following the conclusion of his loan spell at Roma.
Analysis: Ferguson contributed five goals and two assists across 22 appearances (13 starts) before a continuous injury issue required surgery, ending his season prematurely. Ferguson had undergone the procedure to address the recurring problem that had kept him sidelined since late December, and now heads back to Brighton for his recovery ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.
