Early life

Lewis Ferguson was born on 24 August 1999 in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire.[1]

Club career

Hamilton Academical

Ferguson is a graduate of the Hamilton Academical youth system after earlier being part of the setup at Rangers.[2][3] He made his senior debut for Hamilton on 20 January 2018,[4] and became a regular in the team in the latter part of the 2017–18 season, replacing Greg Docherty who had moved to Rangers.[5]

With his contract due to expire at the end of that season, Ferguson signed a pre-contract agreement with Aberdeen in May 2018.[5][6] He was one of seven first-team players who left Hamilton at the end of the 2017–18 season.[7]

Aberdeen

Ferguson made his competitive debut for Aberdeen on 26 July 2018, in the first leg of a Europa League tie against Burnley at Pittodrie Stadium.[8][9] He scored his first senior goal in the second leg at Turf Moor – a "stunning overhead kick" – although Burnley eventually won the tie on aggregate after extra time.[10] On 28 October, he helped Aberdeen to reach the 2018 Scottish League Cup Final by scoring the only goal of the semi-final against Rangers at Hampden Park.[11] By the end of the calendar year, he had also scored three league goals, all in the closing minutes of each fixture, with two of them (a free kick against Kilmarnock[12] and another overhead kick against Livingston)[13] winning the matches for his team.

In February 2019, Ferguson extended his contract with Aberdeen, keeping him at the club until 2024.[14] In April, he played at Hampden Park again, but this time was sent off for a dangerous challenge as Aberdeen lost to Celtic in the semi-final of the 2018–19 Scottish Cup.[15] In May 2019, he was nominated for the season's PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year; the award was won by Ryan Kent.[16]

Ferguson was the club's top scorer during the 2020–21 season, with 10 goals in 41 appearances.[17] Aberdeen rejected an offer from Watford for Ferguson in May 2021, after which he submitted a written transfer request.[17]

Bologna

On 12 July 2022, Italian club Bologna announced the signing of Ferguson for an undisclosed transfer fee.[18][19] He made his debut as a substitute in a 2–0 away defeat to Milan on 27 August 2022,[20] and made two more substitute appearances before his first start against Napoli on 16 October.[21] His first goal came a week later, the second in a 2–0 win at home to Lecce, and he scored again the following week – the equaliser in a 2–1 away win over Monza.[20] On 12 November 2022, he scored Bologna's third goal in a 3–0 win over Sassuolo, a curling effort from the edge of the penalty area after a one-two with Nicolás Domínguez that was later named the Serie A goal of the month for November 2022.[22][23] Ferguson started 28 games for Bologna during the 2022–23 season as they finished ninth in Serie A.[24] He scored seven goals during the season, which was the highest tally by a Scottish player in an Italian league season since Denis Law played for Torino in 1961–62.[24]

In July 2023, Ferguson signed a new contract with Bologna that is due to run until the end of the 2026–27 season.[24] In October 2023 he became Bologna's captain.[25][26] He continued to captain in December 2023.[27]

Ferguson became the top Scottish scorer in Serie A history on 23 December 2023, overtaking Denis Law, when he scored the only goal in a 1–0 win against Atalanta.[28]

In March 2024 he continued to captain the club,[29] but linked with a transfer to Juventus and Napoli.[30]

International career

Ferguson was called up by the Scotland under-19 team in August 2017,[31] and he went on to make appearances at the under-19, under-20 and Scotland under-21 levels.[32] Ferguson received his first call-up to the senior Scotland squad in August 2021 for games against Denmark, Moldova and Austria.[33] He made his debut against Denmark on 1 September 2021 in a 2–0 away loss, coming on for Billy Gilmour in added time.[34]

Personal life

Lewis is the son of Derek Ferguson and nephew of Barry Ferguson, both former professional footballers with clubs including Rangers, and the Scotland national team.[35] His cousin Kyle Ferguson is also a footballer (they were teammates as children in the Rangers academy).[2] His daughter Lake was born in November 2022.[36]
