Michael Arteta is looking to add more alternatives to his squad, and Arsenal is willing to re-enter the market for Brighton and Hove Albion youngster Tariq Lamptey as a result.

Gunners are reportedly planning another assault on Brighton & Hove Albion next summer, this time in pursuit of midfielder Tariq Lamptey, according to a new report from Fichajes.
The 21-year-old has emerged as one of three players who may be regarded as a possible target for Arsenal, who are looking to improve their options at right-back in the coming months.

It seems that head coach Mikel Arteta is looking to bring in a more attack-minded full-back to compete with the new acquisition Takehiro Tomiyasu in order to strengthen his squad.

As a consequence, the Gunners have targeted Lamptey as a target of opportunity. They had previously done business with Brighton earlier in the summer. This was when they signed Ben White from them for an undisclosed amount.

For the second time in as many months, Arsenal have been connected with a move for Lamptey

A strong start to the season has seen the Englishman flourish at the Emirates. This is where he has established himself as a regular at left-back alongside Gabriel Magalhaes, Kieran Tierney, and Takehiro Tomiyasu. Following their acquisition of another Brighton defender, Arsenal is aiming to repeat their previous level of success.

For the second time in as many months, Arsenal has been connected with a move for Lamptey. That is, with the right-back also being linked with a transfer to Arsenal at the start of the season. Though no official bid has been made, it is still a transfer saga that goes on.

The 21-year-old does not have enough experience at the top level of football since he has only made 20 competitive appearances for Brighton so far

Lamptey was once a part of the Chelsea development system. He has emerged as a desirable target for a number of teams owing to his technical skill and attacking flair. He has exceptional speed. His proclivity to advance up the field at every chance may make him a perfect replacement for Tomiyasu, who is a more defensive-minded right-back.

It is possible that the 21-year-old does not have enough experience at the top level of football. That is since he has only made 20 competitive appearances for Brighton so far. However, he shows a lot of promise and has the ability to develop into one of the greatest wing-backs in the Premier League. Only if he is given the chance.

Arsenal has had a great deal of success in developing young players in recent years. It makes the Emirates an excellent destination for Lamptey. That is if he decides to take the next step in his career after this year’s season.

The Brighton prodigy, however, is not Arsenal’s only option at right-back. The Gunners are also interested in Leicester City’s emerging star, James Justin. Max Aarons is also an option, who may be a potential replacement. Let’s see if Arsenal can get the deal done, with the club looking to add more quality. He can be the answer to a lot of their problems for the upcoming seasons.
