Brighton & Hove Albion’s loan players, Evan Ferguson, Facundo Buonanotte, and Julio Enciso, will return to the club at the end of the season, but their long-term futures are uncertain.
Ferguson, who was loaned to West Ham United, struggled to make an impact, scoring zero goals in six appearances. His return to Brighton will depend on the club’s striker situation, with Danny Welbeck, Georginio Rutter, and Joao Pedro currently ahead of him in the pecking order.
Buonanotte, who played for Leicester City, impressed early in the season but saw a decline in form after a coaching change. His return to Brighton will depend on whether the club can find a way to utilize his skills, particularly in his preferred position on the right flank.
Enciso, who played for Ipswich Town, showed flashes of talent but will likely face stiff competition from Georginio Rutter, Matt O’Riley, and Brajan Gruda for a spot in Brighton’s midfield. The club may need to have honest discussions with Enciso and his agent about his future.
The Seagulls have already invested in young Greek striker Stefanos Tzimas, who will join the club this summer, adding to the competition for places in the team. The futures of Ferguson, Buonanotte, and Enciso will depend on various factors, including the club’s transfer plans and the development of other young players.
