Championship clubs line up to loan Brighton starlet Evan Ferguson after the 18-year-old made his Republic of Ireland debut... with Sheffield United, Millwall and Middlesbrough among those interested in the striker

Brighton and Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson is attracting interest from a host of Championship clubs after making his international debut this week.

The 18-year-old, who has made just five first team appearances for Brighton, became the fourth youngest player to appear for the Republic of Ireland when he came on as a substitute against Norway on Thursday and is expected to be part of the side that faces Malta on Sunday.

Brighton beat Liverpool to sign him from Bohemians and he scored his first senior goal for them earlier this season against Forest Green Rovers in the Carabao Cup.
