Brighton injury blow as Tariq Lamptey sees specialist after injury setback

https://theathletic.com/news/tariq-lamptey-brighton-injury-latest/0CwjDNuWPnZg

Brighton's fight against relegation has been hit by another setback to Tariq Lamptey's recovery from a hamstring injury.

 

The rapid right wing-back has already missed the last 13 Premier League matches since sustaining the injury against Fulham in mid-December.

Had Lamptey been close to a return?

Lamptey has been back in full training.

 

He was mentioned by head coach Graham Potter as a possible contender for the bench for last Saturday's 1-0 defeat at West Brom.

 

But the 20-year-old was not involved in the matchday squad.

What has Graham Potter said?

Potter, speaking at Thursday's press conference ahead of the home game against Leicester on Saturday evening, said: "Tariq won't be fit. He's had a little setback this week, so it's disappointing for him.

 

"We're trying to get to the bottom of it.

"The problem is with his hamstring. He is seeing a specialist."

Who will play in Lamptey's place?

Joel Veltman has been outstanding in Lamptey's position and Potter will continue to rely on the experienced Dutch international.

 

Polish prospect Michal Karbownik, signed in October, provides extra back-up.

Have Brighton got any other serious injury issues?

Brighton, currently three points above the relegation zone, are already without left wing-back Solly March (knee) for the rest of the season.

Is there anything else I need to know?

Yes. Andy Naylor looked into Lamptey's likely problems with injury in January.

Seems like Lamptey is an injury prone player? Hope he can sort out his hamstring problems.
