Brentford are interested in signing Aberdeen midfielder Lewis Ferguson, according to reports from the Daily Record.

The Bees remain in the hunt for automatic promotion to the Premier League with the remainder of the 2019/20 campaign still in limbo, and Thomas Frank will now be identifying potential transfer targets.

Ferguson is a player on the Bees' radar, and has been since last season, but their interest has now grown after what has been an impressive campaign thus far.

Are these 15 Said Benrahma facts true or false?

The 20-year-old has scored three goals for Aberdeen this term, registering a further nine assists for Derek McInnes' side, helping them push for a Europa League spot.

The Scot is said to be aware of Brentford's interest, as the London club look to progress off the pitch and break into the Premier League.

The West London club are set to move into a new stadium, and will be hoping to bring top-flight football to their new arena.

Brentford have a wealth of talent in their midfield, and bringing in a new, young midfielder would only add to a really exciting area of the pitch.

The Verdict

Ferguson looks to be a really exciting player who has flourished under McInnes for the Dons this season.

The likes of Mathias Jensen, Christian Norgaard and Josh Dasilva have all been excellent for Frank this term, but it would be a great addition for them to add a natural creative player to the middle of the park.

He has plenty of years ahead of him and it could be a real coup to lure him to West London.
