Ferguson to have West Ham medical before loan move

Brighton striker Evan Ferguson is set to join West Ham on loan until the end of the season and will have a medical at the Hammers on Sunday.

The 20-year-old will link up with his former Brighton manager Graham Potter in east London and the Hammers will pay a loan fee, Ferguson's wages and any add ons.

The Republic of Ireland international came on as a substitute in Brighton's 7-0 loss to Nottingham Forest on Saturday as he returned from an ankle injury.

But it was just the 20-year-old's 15th appearance of the season for the Seagulls, with 11 of those coming from the bench, and he has had few chances to impress manager Fabian Hurzeler.
