Fiorentina have delivered a painful update to fans, revealing that Ghanaian right-back Tariq Lamptey has suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee.

The injury, sustained during a recent training session, is a major setback for the 23-year-old, who had been enjoying a bright start to the season. Club doctors confirmed the diagnosis after scans, and Lamptey is expected to undergo surgery in the coming days. Recovery from such an injury typically requires several months, meaning the dynamic defender faces a long road back to full fitness.

This development is not only a blow to Fiorentina’s campaign but also to Ghana’s national team plans, with key international fixtures looming. Supporters and teammates have already begun sending messages of encouragement, hoping for a strong comeback from the pacey full-back known for his relentless energy and overlapping runs.
