Leeds United learn position in pecking order to sign Brighton ace Evan Ferguson
Leeds United are currently sixth in the pecking order to secure the services of Brighton striker Evan Ferguson, according to TEAMtalk.
The news outlet reported on 25 January that while the Whites have ambitious interests, they are not that high up on the Republic of Ireland international’s priority list.
Daniel Farke is understood to be keen on signing a striker before the 3 February deadline.
Evan Ferguson can fire Leeds United to promotion this season
Ferguson could be the key to firing Leeds to promotion due to his proven goal-scoring prowess and natural talent.
At just 20 years old, he has already shown he can perform at the Premier League level with Brighton, scoring goals that demonstrate his eye for goal and tactical intelligence.
His ability to lead the line, hold up play, and link up with players around him would add a new dimension to the Whites’ attack, providing the focal point that has been somewhat lacking.
In the Championship, where fine margins can often decide games, the 20-year-old’s clinical finishing and his ability to score from various situations could be the difference in tight matches.
His quality and ambition could also inspire the team, lifting morale and performance levels.
With Leeds currently in need of a striker, the 20-year-old’s potential to score consistently and create chances for others could propel them past their competitors in the promotion race, securing their return to the Premier League.
