Ferguson returns to Brighton for medical consultation | OneFootball

Evan Ferguson’s situation is a complete mystery.

The Irishman is struggling to recover from his ankle injury.

The Giallorossi number 11 hasn’t been back on the pitch since January 22nd, and his return doesn’t seem any closer.

The situation is worrying Roma and beyond.

The Giallorossi striker has boarded a flight to England for a consultation with Brighton: the club that owns his contract, according to Il Corriere della Sera, wants to closely monitor his ankle condition.

Ferguson’s situation threatens to become an international sensation.

Indeed, his prolonged absence has also caught the attention of Ireland coach Heimir Hallgrimsson, who recently spoke at a press conference about the Irish striker’s condition. “It’s true that Ferguson has had problems since he arrived at Roma, but the other striker is also injured now. They’re struggling there. I can’t comment on Gasperini’s comments, but Evan seems fit and close to peak condition,” said the Irish national team coach.

Roma’s hope is that the striker is truly close to peak fitness, providing another option in a department decimated by injuries.
