Born in Scotland on 24 August 1999, 26-year-old Lewis Ferguson has ascended the ranks of football to become a highly regarded central midfielder, currently plying his trade for Bologna. Standing at 6ft (1.85m) tall and weighing 11st 11lb (75kg), his physicality is at the heart of his game. On the field, he can be seen sporting the number 19 jersey and he has had the honour to wear the colours of the Scotland national team.
As of present, Ferguson's market value stands at around £17m, as stated on the well-known football database website, Transfermarkt.
Ferguson's early career sprouted in the humble trappings of Hamilton Academical in Scotland, where he joined as a trainee in July 2015. His inaugural season for the senior team in 2017-2018 saw him break into the side and he made 13 first team appearances in league matches.
Upon demonstrating his burgeoning talent, Ferguson was snapped up by Aberdeen in July 2018, for a fee that remains undisclosed. His four seasons with Aberdeen were relatively fruitful, especially his final season with the club in 2021 - 2022, where he made 36 appearances and scored 11 goals in league matches.
The lure of Italian football proved irresistible for Ferguson, and in July 2022, he finalised his transfer to Bologna in Serie A for a fee of around £3m. His performances for Bologna have held firm consistency over the previous seasons, and in 2022 - 2023, he even managed to contribute seven goals in 32 league matches.
International tournament representation has been a regular feature for Ferguson, who enjoyed stints in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024 - 2026, where he scored one goal in five starts for Scotland, and the Euro Qualifiers 2022 - 2024. Moreover, Stuart starred in the Nations League 2024 - 2025, and the Europa League 2025 - 2026 for Bologna, broadening his game and experience on the broader stage.
