Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi says Tariq Lamptey is a doubt for the game against Leeds United on Saturday. Lamptey came off worse in a challenge and was replaced inside the opening 15 minutes of Brighton's resounding 4-0 win over West Ham United last weekend.
De Zerbi revealed Lamptey's injury was only a 'small' problem after the game, and the Ghana international has been in training during the week.
However, the Seagulls boss has offered a further update, which has casted doubt over Lamptey's fitness prior to Brighton's trip to Elland Road.

"Solly March and Levi Colwill are on the list. Tariq [Lamptey] - I don't know," De Zerbi said in his pre-match press conference on Friday.
Colwill is in contention for his first appearance since Brighton defeated Liverpool 3-0 at the Amex in January. The Chelsea loanee played 45 minutes in the under-21s 3-1 win over Wolves on Sunday.
De Zerbi added: ""We have to see. Colwill [may be] in the squad. I want to see him this morning. Last week he was with the under-21s. I was in the stadium to watch him."
Elsewhere, Jakub Moder has been back in training after a year long absence. The Polish midfielder is still recovering from an ACL injury which he sustained in April last year, while Adam Lallana may be out for the season with a hamstring injury.
