EPL: Roberto De Zerbi names 18-year-old star to become best, top scorer in Europe

Brighton boss, Roberto De Zerbi, has said that young forward, Evan Ferguson, will one day emerge as some of the best players in Europe.

This was after the 18-year-old netted a hat-trick against Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday. 

Brighton outclassed Newcastle United on Saturday with the Inishman scoring the first hat-trick of his club career in the 3-1 win.

“I’m happy for [Ferguson]… he can become big, big, big. 

“His qualities are enough to become a great player. He can become one of the best, the top scorer in Europe. 

“He was born in 2004, he’s 18. I don’t know how many players are young, that score like him.”
