English born Cameron Carter-Vickers, now aged 28, stands as a solid defensive figure at the heart of Celtic's line-up. The central defender, who tilts the scales at a sturdy 92kg (14st 6lb), and towers at around 1.84m (6ft), dons the number 20 jersey for the Glasgow-based squad. Aside from his club duties, he has also notably worn the colours of the United States on the international stage.
According to Transfermarkt, Carter-Vickers' current market value hovers approximately around €13.00m, which translates to around £11m.
Tracing the journey of his fledgling football career back to July 2009, Carter-Vickers got his start with Premier League outfit, Tottenham Hotspur, as a trainee. Thereafter, he spent time on loan to a series of Championship teams, each spell offering valuable additions to his experience and skill set. Sheffield United (2017-2018), Ipswich Town (2018), Swansea City (2018-2019), Stoke City (2019-2020), and Luton Town (2020) all had the benefit of his services.
In October 2020, he swapped the football field of Tottenham once more, as he transferred on loan to Bournemouth, which was then in the Premier League. Despite the step up in opposition, he held his own, making 21 appearances and chipping in with a goal during the 2020-2021 season.
August 2021 marked a significant milestone in Carter-Vickers' career. Trading the hustle and bustle of the Premier League for the Scottish Premiership, he joined Celtic on loan. A year into his stay, in July 2022, the Green and Whites handed over a sum of £6m to Tottenham Hotspur to transform the loan into a permanent deal.
Being part of Celtic for over four seasons has seen Carter-Vickers effortlessly slot into the squad. Since his debut in the 2021-2022 season, his club appearances have tested and stretched his footballing mettle season after season. He featured prominently in Celtic's League Cup, Champions League qualifiers, and Europa League matches in the 2025-2026 season. A testament to his consistent performances is his average score of nearly one goal per season.
