Roma and Brighton negotiate Ferguson’s buy option | OneFootball

This could be a decisive week for Evan Ferguson at Roma.

The Brighton striker has already given his approval to a move to the capital and is now waiting for the two clubs to reach a final agreement before the deal can be finalized.

Roma has long since finalized the terms of the agreement with the player, but a compromise with Brighton remains to be reached, particularly on two aspects: the buy option and the player’s financial valuation.

As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma is currently aiming for a loan deal with an option to buy, while the English club is insisting on including an obligation to buy.

Brighton wants certainty regarding a permanent transfer, while the Roman club is seeking time to evaluate the terms before committing to a permanent deal.

The financial figure also remains the subject of intense discussion.

Roma has settled on a €25 million offer, deemed adequate by management based on the player’s current value. However, Brighton continues to demand a sum between €40-45 million.
