Tariq Lamptey set to sign new contract amid Bayern Munich interest

Brighton and Hove Albion right-back Tariq Lamptey is set to sign a new contract at the club, as reported by TalkSPORT.

The young Englishman joined Brighton from Chelsea last January for an estimated fee of £4 million. Since then, he has been a revelation, impressing spectators with several top class performances at right-back.

His form has led to him being linked to some of the biggest clubs in the world. For example, Hans-Dieter Flick’s treble winning Bayern Munich were said to be interested in the 20-year-old following Joshua Kimmich’s transition into midfield.

However, this move is beginning to look increasingly unlikely, with TalkSPORT claiming that Lamptey will sign an improved contract at the Seagulls.
