Lewis Ferguson & Josh Doig set to finalise Serie A moves | OneFootball

Scottish duo Josh Doig and Lewis Ferguson are both in Italy to complete medicals ahead of moves to Hellas Verona and Bologna respectively, 90min understands.

Doig is set to finalise a move to Verona, while Ferguson is following in the footsteps of fellow Scotland international Aaron Hickey with a move to Bologna. Hickey spent two very successful seasons at the Renato Dall'Arra, earning a place in the Scotland squad and a £20m move to Brentford at the weekend.

90min understands that a number of English clubs were interested in Ferguson - including Watford last season - but the 22-year-old has opted for a move to Serie A.

The midfielder enjoyed a career best season at Aberdeen in 2021/22, scoring 16 goals in all competitions, and made his Scotland debut in September in a 2-0 defeat to Denmark.

Doig, on the other hand, is yet to make his senior bow for the Scots, but has six under-21 caps to his name and is one of the highest-regarded young Scottish players around. The defender won the SFWA Young Player of the Year award in 2020/21 and continued that fine form into the 2021/22 season at Hibernian, helping them reach the Scottish Cup semi-final and the Scottish League Cup final.

The 20-year-old has previously been linked with a move to the Premier League and Celtic, but has opted to take his talents to Verona this summer.
