Brighton’s Tariq Lamptey faces uncertainty regarding his return from a five-match injury absence, potentially affecting his availability for their Europa League clash against Ajax on Thursday.
The talented full-back was initially expected to make a bench appearance during Brighton’s recent 1-1 draw against Everton. However, a late decision was made to withdraw him from the match due to a minor injury concern.
Brighton’s head coach, Roberto De Zerbi, prioritized Lamptey’s well-being and opted not to take any risks with his fitness.
The 23-year-old Ghanaian international has been sidelined since his notable performance in Brighton’s comeback from a 2-0 deficit at halftime to secure a 2-2 draw against Marseille in the Europa League at the start of October.
As Brighton prepares for their Europa League showdown against Ajax, the status of Tariq Lamptey’s return remains uncertain, and his availability for the crucial fixture will be closely monitored.
