Lamptey explains Chelsea exit decision and why he ended up at Brighton
Tariq Lamptey has explained why he took the decision to leave Chelsea after graduating through their academy system.
The 20-year-old defender did see competitive minutes during his time at Stamford Bridge, making his debut in a London derby clash with Arsenal plus a further two outings during the 2019-20 campaign.
He was, however, to leave on the final day of the January transfer window and take on a new challenge at Brighton. That call was made with his contract at Chelsea running down and with no fresh terms about to be signed.
