Brighton defender Tariq Lamptey is attracting admiring glances from the likes of Bayern Munich, Sevilla, and Atletico Madrid, according to a report from The Daily Mail.

The 20-year-old Seagulls starlet was in brilliant form once again last night as Brighton narrowly lost out to Tottenham in the Premier League.

But Lamptey caught the eye throughout and capped his performance with a well-taken goal to level the scores midway through the second-half.

However, Brighton face a fight to keep hold of the former Chelsea youngster it seems, with the Mail claiming that Lamptey is already on the radar of some of Europe’s biggest and best clubs.

Graham Potter is apparently desperate to see Lamptey sign a new deal with the club. But interest from such giants of Europe could well throw off Brighton’s plans, with the lure of European football something that could interest Lamptey.

The youngster has enjoyed a rapid rise after leaving Chelsea. The Blues decided to allow the right-back to move on, with Reece James already cementing himself at Stamford Bridge ahead of Lamptey.

That’s what all Brighton fans will be hoping for anyway. Lamptey has been sensational and looked every bit a player who could develop into being a world star last night.

Lightning quick, strong for his size and good with the ball, Brighton are doing a fine job of bringing the youngster through the ranks.

There’ll be an acceptance that he will probably move on eventually. But for now, Brighton will want to fight tooth and nail to keep one of the hottest properties in English football.
