The Albion striker will spend time in his hometown and get a holiday after rounding off his breakthrough campaign with his first goal in a competitive international. He headed in a perfect James McClean cross before family and friends in Dublin to help the Republic of Ireland beat Gibraltar 3-0 in a Euro 2024 qualifier. It was his second goal for his country to go with 16 for Albion in all competitions this term, of which six were for the under-21s.

Evan Ferguson said: “It has been a good six months. It has gone very quick but it’s a nice way to finish. I have a bit of time now to relax and take it all in. I’ll switch off for a few weeks and then we go straight back into it again. It’s good to be back home. It’s nice to score, especially when it’s in front of family and friends.”

Ferguson plans to catch up with familiar faces back home, then get away from it all ahead of pre-season with Albion.

Evan Ferguson said: “It is possible you will see me around Bettystown for a week, maybe two, and then I will be gone. It’s been a mad old season, it’s gone quick but it’s been good. I need to just switch off and get re-focused.”
