Yes - it seems Brighton have been touting him around. He was apparently offered to Udinese also.

But Matt O'Riley is now being linked with the same move to Roma, so there must be some specific club or agent link behind all this.

The Romano tweet isn't really saying much new. Just that they've been offered the player and are considering their options.

It’s also very possible that Roma went asking agents for available strikers across Europe’s top five leagues and in the context Ferguson was offered at 32m or whatever it was

I'd say none whatsoever to be honest. He's so far down the list there that I can't imagine he'd have any say or even be asked for his thoughts on a transfer target.

Im not even sure Roma know Zefi is there at this stage.

Word today seems to be that it would be a loan to Roma.

On the BBC site its saying the loan is awaiting Ferguson's agreement.

It's a little less dramatic than the BBC are suggesting. They link to this article on calciomercato.com - https://www.calciomercato.com/notizi...4d0dfb5d65b2d0
Specifically, this sentence

C'è, quindi, attesa per la risposta del giocatore, che qualora dovesse dare il via libera al prestito, si unirebbe alla Roma per una stagione, andando a colmare il vuoto lasciato da Abraham.

passing it through google translate

There is, therefore, anticipation for the player's response, who, should he give the green light to the loan, would join Roma for a season, filling the void left by Abraham.

Says in this one that the player is "analyzing" offers.

Roma seems to be the preferred offloading point for Premier League teams trying to get rid of their underperforming squad players just now.

Would they want both Ferguson and Hojlund?

Can't imagine they'd sign both. Thats the first I've seen of Roma being linked with Hojlund, its Inter that hes supposedly being linked with all summer so far

Not pertaining to Evan but similar in some respects in that he is a very promising young Irish prospect on his way to a big club........David Dunne (U-16) Irish international has been signed by Monaco. He will be officially unveiled on July 15 by the French club but Cork City already announcing the news.
