Pundit John Giles believes that a current Premier League player, Evan Ferguson, would become a top goalscorer if he joined Manchester City. Ferguson, a 19-year-old striker, has shown promise with Brighton & Hove Albion, scoring 16 goals in 64 appearances for the senior side. Despite only scoring two goals in 22 league appearances after a hat-trick earlier in the season, Ferguson has a high percentage of shots on target, making him a potential target for City.
Giles pointed out that Manchester City have a high rate of shot-creating actions and goal-creating actions per 90 minutes this season, suggesting that Ferguson could thrive in their system. With City scoring 63 goals in 28 Premier League games, only Arsenal and Liverpool have scored more this season. Ferguson’s ability to consistently hit the target with his shots could make him a valuable asset for a club like City that creates a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.
Despite his young age, Ferguson has already shown his goal-scoring potential and could develop into a top-quality striker in the future. Whether or not he ends up playing for Manchester City, Giles believes that Ferguson has the talent and skills to become a consistent goalscorer at a high level. With the right development and opportunities, Ferguson could fulfill his potential and make a name for himself in the Premier League.
