Napoli Make Initial Contact for Roma Loanee Evan Ferguson
Any January move hinges on Roma terminating his loan, with Brighton approval also required.
Overview
- Napoli have spoken with Ferguson’s representatives to position themselves should his situation unlock, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.
- Brighton chief executive Paul Barber says the club has no January recall option, leaving any return dependent on Roma ending the agreement.
- A switch to Naples would need Brighton to sanction a redirect after any Roma decision, keeping the scenario in a multi‑club negotiation phase.
- Roma are targeting forwards such as Joshua Zirkzee and Giacomo Raspadori, a push that could necessitate freeing squad space and funds.
- Evan Ferguson has lifted his form with four goals in his last six appearances, including a Europa League brace and his first home goal for Roma.
