Brighton and Hove Albion have received a significant boost with the return of Ghanaian talent Tariq Lamptey to training ahead of the upcoming 2023/24 English Premier League season.
Lamptey had been sidelined since March due to a knee injury sustained during a league match against West Ham, causing him to miss the remainder of the previous season.
His absence was felt not only by his club but also by the Ghana national team, as Lamptey was unable to participate in the crucial Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers against Angola in March. Kingsley Schindler, a German-born player, was selected as his replacement by Black Stars coach Chris Hughton.
Furthermore, Lamptey was unable to feature in Ghana’s AFCON qualifier against Madagascar on June 18, 2023, in Antananarivo. However, his return to training signifies a positive step forward in his rehabilitation process.
During the 2022/23 season, Lamptey made 23 appearances across various competitions but managed to score only one goal. With his return to training, Brighton and Hove Albion will be eager to have his dynamic presence back in their squad for the upcoming Premier League campaign.
