Lewis Ferguson is set to be a target for an £8million transfer to a footballing superpower as AC Milan and Juventus step up their interest in the Scotland star.
Ferguson has been setting Serie A alight with Bologna and it can be revealed two Italian aristocrats have alerted his club to their interest in midfielder, who moved in a £3m deal from Aberdeen in the summer. The 23-year-old has featured 18 times this season, scoring three goals, and cementing his place in the Bologna team with a series of impressive performances.
And his agent Bill McMurdo believes the Ferguson’s rise has already taken him out of the reach of Rangers or Celtic if either of them were interested in bringing him home. McMurdo, speaking on Record Sport's Off The Record podcast, said: "I know for a fact there is interest there from AC Milan and Juventus. Bologna are very open about the whole thing and have kept me in the picture.
