Postecoglou shares Celtic stance on permanent Carter-Vickers move

Ange Postecoglou has confirmed that he ‘absolutely’ wants to sign Cameron Carter-Vickers permanently from Tottenham Hotsp𒁏ur, .

Carter-Vickers has proved to be an inspired loan addition forꦺ Celtic. He has only missed one Scottish Pre🌠miership game since arriving on loan in the summe꧅r.

It is hard to see the USMNT international forcin﷽g his way back into the fold at Spurs. He is now on his seventh loan. And he has only made five appearances in all cౠompetitions for his parent club.

Nevert🐼heless, he may not come cheap. The Daily Record suggests that he is valued at around £6 million. But Postecoglou has made no secret of the fact that he would love for the defender to stay beyond this season.

“Absolutely. I wouldn’t have brought him in if𓆏 I thought it was just a short-term thing,” he said, , when asked about whether he wants to keep the defender🤪.

“All the players we have brought in, we have𝄹 done so with some thought around building a team.”

Permanent Cameron Carter-Vickers move makes perfect sense for both Celtic and Tottenham

Both sides will surely welcome talks over a move f꧙or Carter-Vickers. Celtic have got a player they can seemingly build their defence around.

Tottenham meanwhile, look set 🦂to receive a decent 🍷fee for a player whose future seems to lie elsewhere. There have probably been times when they would have been delighted to receive anything like £6 million.

His stock is currently high. But u🌌nless Antonio Conte wants to take a look at him – which is perhaps not out of the question due to his ability to improve previously-written off players – Spurs will surely have few qualms about letting him go.

Perhaps Tottenham would be wise to seek some add-ons. That co🐬uld be a percentage of a future fee, or even a buy-back clause.
