Ghana’s Tariq Lamptey marks 100th Premier League appearance in Brighton’s win over Chelsea

Ghanaian defender Tariq Lamptey returns for Brighton after two-month injury layoff

Tariq Lamptey has reached a significant career milestone, making his 100th Premier League appearance for Brighton & Hove Albion in a commanding 3-0 victory against his former club, Chelsea.

The Ghanaian right-back, who came through Chelsea’s academy, made his league debut under Frank Lampard but was limited to a single appearance before seeking regular game time elsewhere.

In January 2020, he made the move to Brighton, where he has since established himself as an integral part of the squad.

A Landmark Moment Against Former Club

Lamptey’s 100th Premier League match was made even more memorable as it came against the club where his career began.

The 24-year-old delivered a solid performance, helping Brighton maintain defensive stability while contributing to their attacking play.

Following the match, he expressed his gratitude and ambition on social media:

“Great win, +3 points! 100 Premier League appearances, and still a long way to go! I am always grateful to God,” he wrote.

Brighton’s Dominant Display

The Seagulls delivered an emphatic performance against Chelsea, with Kaoru Mitoma opening the scoring before Yankuba Minteh secured the win with a well-taken brace.

The victory reinforced Brighton’s strong form as they continue to push for a higher position in the league.

Lamptey’s journey from a promising Chelsea academy graduate to a key player for Brighton highlights his perseverance and dedication.

With 100 Premier League appearances now behind him, the Ghana international appears poised for even greater achievements in the years ahead.
