Made his senior debut for Brighton in his one and only appearance in the EFL cup against Cardiff last year.  

Expected to make his second senior appearance tomorrow night.  

Signed by Brighton from Bray Wanderers in August 2022.  Last week, he signed a new 3-year deal with Brighton, following strong Chelsea interest in getting him to switch.  Happily, Brighton is a club that has a strong recent record of recruiting young Irish talent and giving them an opportunity.

A creative and versatile midfielder and only 18 years-old.   Described by the Brighton youth-team manager as the "Irish Phil Foden", it would seem Moran has a high development ceiling. 

Scored 11 times and secured 12 assists for the under-18s in the 2020/21 campaign, and went on to score four goals and four assists in Premier League 2 for the Brighton under-23s last term.  

Potter has said he is unlikely to go out on loan this year - which sounds wise as he has a fair bit of physical development still to go.  

Good to see a player like this come through in a position we're short in. 

Probably too soon for him to be considered for the U21s play-off squad (effectively an U23 squad), but expect him to make the step-up sooner rather than later.

As a 2002, he's another lad who we should see a good bit of in the next U21 campaign.
We should have a decent and exciting squad for that, albeit it likely doesn't start for another year.

He has been in u21 squads all ready, but dropped back to the u19s.

Get a bit lost in the backwash of Ferguson getting his first goal but Moran's flick on to instigate the goal was different class. Dont know much about the lad but plenty hype about him and with that pure bit of quality you can see why!

Crying out for players that can do that sort of thing no harm to have a few coming through!

Starting for Brighton in their mid season friendly (no idea what to call it lol) fairly strong team so good for him to be involved. Ferguson on the bench.

Good assist after picking up the ball in midfield. has looked good. He is obviously a nice player. Physically needs to up it a bit though. A lot of his pressing and tackling is just being in position and standing off. Needs to improve there but on the ball he is class. He is better than most of what we have. I have a feeling De Zerbi isn't that excited by Ferguson though.

Had a couple of nice touches so far. Got forward when Brighton broke but Lamptey hit the side netting instead of passing across the box.

Whatever about Ferguson and his coaching etc, hopefully Caicedo and McAllister hang around Brighton. Two different but very excellent midfielders with plenty to learn from.

Tough for Moran to get a touch in this game now - Brighton are slowing it all down, and lads running into space with the ball and waiting until they're tackled to "pass", so Moran who is their most central forward player is being ignored.
But nice that he's on the field with a world cup winner.

Fair play to him, Bray's youngest ever goalscorer. Can't say I thought when he left he'd be making his debut this quickly, or at all, delighted to be proven wrong.

Remember when Connolly initially broke into the Brighton team the clamour/excitement it generated as he had bridged a 10 year gap of young Irish players breaking through! 

Moran is on the verge of a breakthrough and it’s hardly even registered due to Ferguson but also due to the fact it’s happening regularly now! 

It’s great to see this kid is very talented don’t sleep on him!

One of the best players at underage in England u18 since moving over from Bray. Was top of the goals and assists charts there last year. United wanted him. Classy baller and hope to god he reaches his full potential. Maybe not physically ready so will take time. But he is a great watch and quick thinking street baller type.

He and Ferguson have now been joined by Jamie Mullins, who has signed from Bohemians.
