Tottenham are ready to challenge Arsenal for Brighton fullback Tariq Lamptey.

The Sun says North London rivals Tottenham and Arsenal are set to battle it out off the pitch for right-back Tariq Lamptey, according to reports.

The 20-year-old only joined Brighton from Chelsea in January 2020 but his stock has rapidly risen following a string of impressive performances.

Lamptey's current campaign has been hampered by injuries having been sidelined since December.

But his fitness concerns won't deter both Premier League clubs from making an audacious transfer swoop this summer.

The Seagulls are confident of hanging on to the rising star with the player penning a contract extension until 2025 in January.
