Tariq Lamptey is on the verge of signing a new Brighton contract.
Brighton have been in talks to extend and improve Lamptey’s deal as reward for his displays since his arrival a year ago.
And a new contract for the exciting 20-year-old right-back is now close to being finalised.
Lamptey has been a revelation since moving to Brighton from Chelsea on deadline day last January, penning a three-year deal.
He quickly established himself as Graham Potter’s preferred choice in his position, allowing them to let the experienced Martin Montoya leave.
