Cameron Carter-Vickers, a robust central defender, was born on the last day of 1997 in Southend, England. He weighs in at a significant 14st 6lb (92kg), contained within a sturdy 6ft (1.84m) frame. He has taken on the number 20 jersey through his career journey. Although born in England, Carter-Vickers has international experience, having pulled on the strip for the USA.
Considering his experience and talent, his current market value is a respectable £11.5m as per Transfermarkt's evaluation.
Spurs recognised his potential early, as Carter-Vickers began his professional journey with them in July 2009. He then spent numerous seasons on loan, performing stints with clubs like Sheffield United, Ipswich Town, Swansea City, Stoke City, and Luton Town before moving to Bournemouth in 2020, also on loan.
In 2021, however, the defender made his way north to Celtic on loan, eventually making his move permanent, around £6m, in July 2022. His performances for Celtic have been commendable, consistently proving himself a mainstay in the Celtic backline. During the 2021-2022 season, Carter-Vickers made 33 appearances and netted four goals. The following season, he played 29 times, and he added 25 appearances and a goal in the 2023-2024 season. In 2024-2025, he featured 30 times with 1 goal to his name and so far in the 2025-2026 season, he's played 7 times.
In addition to his league duties, Carter-Vickers has also featured prominently in cup and European contests. He started 3 times in the 2023-2024 Champions League, followed by a League Cup start in the 2025-2026 season, and made 4 Scottish Cup starts in the 2024-2025 season. He also has two starts in the Champions League Qualifiers under his belt thus far in the 2025-2026 season. He has represented Celtic in the Europa League as well, making 3 starting appearances during the 2025-2026 campaign. And let's not forget his appearance coming off the bench for the USA in the 2024 Copa America.
In summary, Cameron Carter-Vickers is a towering presence at the heart of any defence, tenacious in the challenge and possesses a knack for popping up with the odd goal. He's established himself as a vital part of the Celtic squad, and there's no doubt we're looking forward to seeing plenty more sterling displays from him at Celtic Park.
