When Liverpool face Brighton & Hove Albion at the AMEX Community Stadium today, Evan Ferguson could be in the starting line-up.
The 18-year-old scored his first goal for the Seagulls against Arsenal on New Year's Day, becoming Brighton's youngest ever Premier League goal scorer and quickly followed it up with another against Everton three days later when he made is first Premier League start.
Brighton's 4-1 triumph at Goodison also included an assist for the impressive teenager but had he chosen a different path, the Irishman could easily have been a Liverpool player right now. Ferguson came to the attention of a host of top clubs after playing for Bohemians in a preseason match against Chelsea in 2019, aged just 14.
