Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler:

"I like a striker who is a clear No9. His profile of player is not that often available. We like this style of player. Evan is a very good character.

"In the end it's important for such a young player who had this many issues in the past to play regularly because without playing time, game time you don't get your belief back, self-confidence back. That's the main thing we have to focus on with him."

"He trained for the first time yesterday and he's in good shape. We're very happy he's back in our squad.

"If everything went well with the last training sessions then for sure he will be an option [to be in the squad to face Nottingham Forest].

"My job is really to focus on the player on the pitch. He trained well yesterday. He came through the session without any pain. That's the main thing at the moment. The other things we can't influence.

"He knows my thoughts, the thoughts from the club. The thoughts from Evan. That's the most important and then we'll see what happens.

"I'm OK he's in our squad and really happy he's in our squad and want to keep working with him. But it's important to discuss with him what's important for the individual development of the player. That's the main thing: we want to develop the players, help them. Then we see what makes sense for the player in the next six months, what makes sense for the club then we make a decision all together.

"I felt in the conversations I've had with Evan that he only wants to play. That's his main thing, no matter if it's here or for another club".
 

Lot of time on the treatment table at a young age that init. If that was a young apprentice in the workplace you would be navigating a layoff with HR.
Yes agree while he’s looked good at times why aren’t Brighton taking the risk with him? Another one to probably stay clear of be dele alli all over again the dream of him becoming a goodison great. If it’s even a genuine rumour and it was a loan then yes take a chance but if he gets injured will be same as Broja why did we get him in bla bla. Have we not looked at anyone around Europe, Asia, America/south we’ve needed a replacement for DCL all season anyway when was we going to become active on that search? Change of owner/manager but doesn’t seem like a whole lots changed.
 
Ferguson has been described by Premier League record goalscorer Alan Shearer as looking "like the real deal. Left foot, right foot, headers, pace, aggression, intuition; there is no obvious weakness to his game."


What would he know? :D

Was this before or after his injuries?

Just reading a Brighton forum and they all say he hasnt been the same since his knee fell off.
 

The shrewd move here would be a loan with an option. I doubt Brighton agree to the deal on our terms, though, especially if they know of an underlying issue. They'll want a quick sale.

What's the second most important thing Fabien?
