Lewis Ferguson is constantly linked to new Serie A teams, and his agent Bill McCurdo, while dismissing the rumors, revealed that his client would like to continue in Serie A in an interview with TVPlay.

“He’s a very ambitious player and always wanted to get to the top, prioritizing clubs that gave him a central role and helped him develop. Bologna did that. He’s very happy for choosing them because he’s improving a lot.”

Ferguson might follow Thiago Motta at his next stop.

“He’s an extraordinary coach, and there’s great respect between them. He has always had excellent managers, but his current one stands out. There have been rumors about Napoli, Inter, Milan, and Juventus, but he has been clear with his side. It’ll be up to the Rossoblù management to discuss his future with the suitors. We’ll think about it at the end of the season.”

“Thiago Motta is very good. Should he be hired by Juventus and ask to have Ferguson with him, it’d be very hard for the player to turn down an opportunity like that considering their relationship.”

“He told me he would like to play football in Italy when he was 17 already. He loves the culture and is very comfortable. He’ll continue in Serie A for the next five years.”

Our Take on Ferguson

It’s great news for the Italian sides, as he’s tailor-made to play in the Premier League, and Bologna would get more money by selling him there.
