Ferdinand is a goalkeeper unlike his father, who was a record-breaking defender for the likes of Leeds and Manchester United in his playing days.

A club statement from the Hawks said: “Havant and Waterlooville Football Club are thrilled to announce that, goalkeeper, Lorenz Ferdinand has joined on work experience from Premier League outfit Brighton & Hove Albion for the remainder of the Season!

“Ferdinand, 18, came through the set-up at Brighton & Hove Albion where he now continues to refine his trade in their Under-21’s set-up.

“Lorenz links up with Shaun North’s side for the run-in as the push towards the end of the season continues!

“We welcome Lorenz to the Hawks and look forward to seeing him in action very soon.”

Six-time Premier League winner Ferdinand is the dad of five children, with his eldest Lorenz following in his father's footsteps to try and become a footballer.

In 2023 Lorenz signed a management deal with agency New Era Global Sports.

Ferdinand Snr. posted on Instagram: “Our eldest is on his own journey in football.
