Evan Ferguson Next Club Odds: West Ham Favourites To Sign Irishman

As the winter transfer window draws to a close, Evan Ferguson's future remains uncertain.

The Republic of Ireland forward has been linked with a move away from the Amex Stadium as injuries have limited the number of appearances he has made this season.

Betting sites have been on top of this market for several months and they will continue to update their market on where he will end up next.

With Danny Welbeck and Joao Pedro ahead of him in the pecking order under Fabian Hurzeler, Ferguson has only started two Premier League game this term.

The 20-year-old still has a bright future ahead of him, but where will it be?

Let’s take a look at some of the striker’s suitors. 

Evan Ferguson Next Club Odds

West Ham Favourites To Land Ferguson

West Ham fans are waiting for their season to kickstart and with Graham Potter now picking the team, they will hope the wins starts to flow and they can climb the table. 

Potter replaced Julen Lopetegui in January, and four points from his first three league games has hardly sent shockwaves through the league.

The Hammers are currently without forwards Michail Antonio and skipper Jarrod Bowen so their forward options need strengthening. 

Signing Ferguson makes sense as he will be guaranteed more game time. West Ham are the 8/11 favourites on betting apps to sign Ferguson.

Ferguson's Future Could Lie Further Afield

More and more players from these shores are being lured abroad by clubs who continue to roll out the red carpet to young up-and-coming players from the UK and Ireland. 

Ferguson could follow in the footsteps of Harry Kane and Scott McTominay, whose clubs are top of the Bundesliga and Serie A following moves to Bayern Munich and Napoli in recent seasons. 

The Irishman's physical play would fit in well in any of the four other major leagues in Europe. 

Don't rule out a move to a German club (5/4), a Ligue 1 side (6/1), an Italian club (20/1) or a Spanish top-flight team (20/1) for Ferguson.

Toffees In Dire Need Of Goals

For the fourth successive season, Everton find themselves in a fight to avoid relegation to the Championship.

One reason for that is their inability to score goals regularly. In their last 136 league games, they have scored 136 goals. 

Their main strike threat is Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but injuries continue to sideline the Toffees' talisman. 

Ferguson would add another dimension to the way David Moyes' side can play in the second half of the season. 

Everton are 16/1 to sign Ferguson from Brighton. 

Cherries Are A More Attractive Option These Days

A move to Bournemouth might not have been appealing a couple of seasons ago. 

However, since the arrival of Andoni Iraola in the summer of 2023, the Cherries have been on the rise.

Bournemouth finished 12th in Iraola's first season on the south coast, and many thought that was a flash in the pan.

However, the Vitality Stadium side have a top-four finish on their minds. They are just one point behind Manchester City in fourth and four behind Nottingham Forest in third. 

Bournemouth, who are without several injured forwards including Evanilson and Enes Unal, are 16/1 on football betting sites to land Ferguson. 

Villa Also Keen On Signing Ferguson

Aston Villa are set to lose Jhon Duran to a lucrative £65m move to Al Nassr.

Duran has struggled to impress Villa boss Unai Emery enough to start more games, despite scoring seven goals. 

Most of those have come from the bench, and it's understandable that the Colombian would maybe agree to a move away from Villa Park. 

At 21, a move to Saudi Arabia might seem early in his career, but the transfer fee allows Emery to bring in fresh blood. Villa are 16/1 to sign Ferguson. 

Other clubs in the mix to sign Ferguson include Arsenal (25/1), Leicester (25/1), Celtic (25/1) and Wolves (25/1) who would all benefit from Ferguson's services.
