Lewis Ferguson, born on 24 August 1999 (age 26), is a Scotland midfielder now with Bologna, where he wears the number 19 shirt and operates mainly in central midfield.
His most productive league season came at Aberdeen in 2021-22, when he scored 11 goals in 36 appearances. That return was enough to mark him out as more than a tidy Scottish midfielder, without requiring anyone to pretend he was reinventing the position.
At Bologna, Ferguson has remained a regular first-team presence in 2025-26. He has made 27 Serie A appearances, scoring once, along with two Coppa Italia appearances, two in the Supercoppa and 14 in the Europa League. Across all competitions for the club this season, he has played 45 times and scored one goal.
He has also stayed involved with Scotland, making five appearances in European World Cup qualifying this season and scoring once. His market value is around £15.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Ferguson’s career has moved from a strong spell at Aberdeen to regular football in Italy with Bologna, while keeping him in the Scotland picture. At 26, he is an established midfielder with a useful body of work behind him and plenty still in front of him.
