Cameron Carter-Vickers was born in Southend-on-Sea on 31 December 1997 (age 28), and represents the United States internationally. A central defender by trade, he came through at Tottenham Hotspur, with a series of loan spells giving him the regular senior football that a young centre-half usually needs more than another year of polite development-squad football.
Celtic brought him in from Tottenham in August 2021, and he settled quickly into a role that has become central to the side. His first league campaign was also his most productive in front of goal, with four goals in 33 Premiership appearances in 2021-2022. More importantly, he gave Celtic a reliable defensive base at a point when the team badly needed one.
Since then, Carter-Vickers has built a substantial Celtic record. Wearing squad number 20, he has won four Premiership titles, three League Cups and two Scottish Cups with the club, as well as finishing as a Scottish Cup runner-up once. His current market value is around ยฃ7.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
He remains part of the current Celtic side. In 2026-2027, he has made six league appearances, along with two in the League Cup, two in Champions League qualifying and one in the Europa League. His career has moved from Tottenham prospect, through the necessary loan education, to an important first-team defender at Celtic.
