Hamilton youth academy graduate Ferguson, who moved to the Serie A club from Aberdeen in 2022, captained Bologna to victory over AC Milan tonight.
Dan Ndoye scored the only goal as Bologna lifted the trophy after a 1-0 victory at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
It's only the third time Bologna have won the major honour after previous triumphs in 1970 and 1974.

Ahead of the final, Ferguson told The Herald for the special edition Il Calcio della Scozia broadsheet pull-out: "We’ve got some massive games in the league and cup. The season is fizzling out for a lot of teams at the moment, but not us.
“Last season was incredible and a lot of people probably thought it would be impossible for us to do similar or go even better. But we've got a good squad, good players and a really good manager who's got us playing the way he wants us to play. We've been strong this season again.
“We're in a good place and the aim is now to go and finish the season as strongly as possible. Obviously, it would be amazing to get our hands on a trophy. It's going to be difficult, AC Milan are a good team. But, yeah, there is an awful lot to look forward to just now.
“The fans are absolutely buzzing. It's really nice to see. They've not been used to having a successful team in recent years so they're just delighted to be able to enjoy these sort of moments. We as a team are just so proud to be able to give something back to the city.”
