"It is now clear that he will finish the season here and will have surgery on his ankle, he will no longer have time to recover even in the end of the season, Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini said ahead of Sunday's game at Genoa."
"Ferguson's loan spell at Roma is also likely to come to an early end and he will return to parent club Brighton and Hove Albion to undergo surgery. The 21-year-old has scored five goals in 22 appearances for the Serie A club but his season has been hampered by a number of injuries."
Evan Ferguson, a 21-year-old Roma striker on loan from Brighton and Hove Albion, has been ruled out for the rest of the season with an ankle injury. He will undergo surgery and return to Brighton, ending his loan spell early. Ferguson scored five goals in 22 Serie A appearances but faced recurring injuries throughout his time at Roma. Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini confirmed Ferguson will not recover in time for the season's conclusion. Ferguson will miss the Republic of Ireland's World Cup play-off against Czech Republic on 26 March, despite scoring three goals during qualifying. Ireland previously qualified for the play-off through victories over Portugal and Hungary.
