Tottenham Hotspur had a busy last few hours on deadline day as the summer transfer window closed. The London-based wrapped its deal with FC Barcelona while also reaching an agreement to terminate the contract of Serge Aurier.
Nonetheless, Tottenham snuck in another deal before the window closed as they announced the departure of Cameron Carter-Vickers, who has joined Celtic FC on loan for the rest of the 2021-22 season.
Carter-Vickers had initially had one year left on his deal, but as Football London’s Alasdair Gold reported, the defender extended his contract last year with Tottenham, which pushed the club’s option for another year.
The loan to Celtic marks the seventh time that Carter-Vickers leaves Tottenham on a temporary basis but has yet to find a home despite being 23-year-old.
It will be interesting to see if the American defender can carve out a spot on the Scottish club’s backline this season. If not, he’ll be back in north London next summer.
