Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City team has won all four of their games thus far, making for an ideal start to their Premier League title defense.
Erling Haaland, a striker for City, has contributed to the team’s strong start.
He is off to a similar prolific start this season as he did last.
The Norwegian, who set a league record by scoring 36 goals in the Premier League last season, has scored six goals in his first four league games.
It seems that the defending European champions are interested in another Premier League forward despite Haaland’s stellar performance since joining City.
Isport reported that the Citizens are keeping an eye on Evan Ferguson, a striker for Brighton and Hove Albion, with the intention of possibly making a move for the Irishman.
Saturday against Newcastle, Ferguson scored his first hat-trick for Brighton.
According to the report, City are one of several top-tier clubs keeping an eye on the 18-year-old following his explosive start to the new season.
Ferguson’s season total now stands at four goals in as many games after Saturday’s 3-1 victory over Newcastle United.
Ferguson, who could be worth up to £150 million, is reportedly being watched by “nearly every one” of the division’s Champions League contenders.
The youngster made his senior debut for the Seagulls during the 2021/22 season after moving to Brighton from the Irish club Bohemians in 2021.
His breakthrough campaign last year saw him score ten goals in 24 games across all competitions, helping Brighton earn a spot in European competition for the first time ever.
Because Ferguson has a summer 2028 contract with Brighton, his current employers are under very little pressure to sell the star.
Although they are reportedly interested in Ferguson, City are also reportedly eager to reach a new contract with Haaland, raising the possibility that they intend to play the two together.
