Tariq Lamptey set to miss Leicester City clash

Brighton and Hove Albion manager Graham Potter has confirmed that young English full-back Tariq Lamptey will miss their home game against Leicester City with a new injury problem.

Lamptey signed for Brighton in the 2020 January transfer window, having failed to make a breakthrough at Chelsea. Since then, he has become one of the league’s most promising young full-backs, recording a goal and two assists in 19 Premier League appearances for the Seagulls.

However, the 20-year-old’s season has been blighted by injuries. He has not made an appearance since December 16th in the 0-0 draw against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
