Brighton right-back, Tariq Lamptey
Defender Tariq Lamptey returned to action for Brighton & Hove Albion for the first time since February, having fully recovered from the injury that ruled him out of Ghana’s last international assignment in March.
The Brighton right-back missed the World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar due to injury and had been sidelined since the FA Cup game against Newcastle United in February.
However, he made his comeback in the Premier League clash against the Magpies at the London Stadium on Sunday. Lamptey replaced Mats Wieffer nine minutes into the second half, as Brighton shared the spoils with Newcastle United.
Gambian forward Yankuba Minteh opened the scoring for Brighton in the first half, before a late penalty from Alexander Isak salvaged a point for the visitors.
Meanwhile, Lamptey will be hoping to finish the campaign strongly, as his contract with the Seagulls nears its expiration.
The Ajax target will become a free agent at the end of June if Brighton fail to offer him a new deal.
