Ghana international Tariq Lamptey made his 100th appearance for Brighton and Hove Albion over the weekend.

Lamptey came off the bench to replace Joel Veltman in the Premier League game against Newcastle United in the 40th minute on Saturday.

The 23-year-old played a decent game as the Seagulls managed a 1-1 draw on the road against the Magpies, ending their two-game losing streak.

The Ghanaian defender joined Brighton from Chelsea in January 2020.

The right-back has battled injuries for the majority part of his time with Brighton but has still managed 100 appearances.

86 of 100 games for the club have come in the Premier League while he has five appearances each in the FA Cup and the EFL Cup competitions.

With Brighton also making it to Europe, Lamptey featured four times in the group stage.

The former Chelsea youngster has 11 goal contributions for Roberto de Zerbi's side since his arrival, scoring two and providing nine assists.
