Tariq Lamptey - Working on pitch Lamptey (muscular) was pictured training alone Thursday in his return from injury.

He opened the season injured, returned, got injured again, played one match and then has been out since November with this injury. Upon return, whenever that may be, it's likely he'll only serve in a backup role to Pervis Estupinan in order to build up strength and fitness.
