DUNCAN FERGUSON’S son Cameron has joined Newcastle United – after scoring against big rivals Sunderland on trial.
Ex-Everton schoolboy striker Cameron, 18, bounced back from Tranmere Rovers releasing him with a dream move – 21 years after his dad’s Toon spell.
He said: “The coaches have been excellent with me so far and everyone’s been helping me so much, so I can’t wait to get started.
“Hopefully I can make an impact. The club have put a lot of belief in me and I want to work my hardest and do my best for the team and the club.
“My dad is made up too – he speaks very highly of the club, its fan base and the lovely stadium.
“When the call came through that I was going to sign, he was so excited and so are the whole family.
“To come to a club like Newcastle is fantastic and I’m over the moon.”
Ferguson senior is now Everton assistant boss after spending ten years in all at Goodison Park as a player, either side of his two years at St James’ Park.
The ex-Scotland star’s son went on trial with Newcastle towards the end of last season.
