# Celtic: Hoops credited with late Carter-Vickers interest

**Celtic are interested in signing Tottenham defender Cameron Carter-Vickers on deadline day, according to [Sky Sports’ Paul Gilmour](https://twitter.com/footballdaily/status/1432696509124972554).**

### The Lowdown: Carter-Vickers links

[Links](https://twitter.com/lhenry019/status/1407458637396811776) to the Spurs defender emerged back in June, with Celtic [in talks](https://twitter.com/lhenry019/status/1412787973003923460) over a deal for the [USA international](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/cameron-carter-vickers/profil/spieler/341049).

As we know, Celtic have added to their defensive [ranks](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/celtic-glasgow/transfers/verein/371) with Carl Starfelt, Liam Scales and Osaze Urhoghide.

Carter-Vickers was [keen](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/cameron-carter-vickers-keen-celtic-24491229) on a move to Parkhead earlier in the summer, and it seems as if a move to Scotland could be on the cards late on deadline day.

### The Latest: Sky Sports claim

Gilmour, reporting from Tottenham’s training ground, shared Celtic’s late interest in Carter-Vickers on-air.

Cited by [Football Daily](https://twitter.com/footballdaily/status/1432696509124972554), Gilmour said:

> ‘We’re being told Celtic loan interest in him, but a difficult deal to do’.

### The Verdict: McKay set for a late-night?

With Sky Sports sharing links to Carter-Vickers this afternoon, Dominic McKay could be in for a late-night at Parkhead.

Expected deals for [Georgios Giakoumakis and Filipe Jota](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/ryan-christie-celtic-bournemouth-transfer-24872300) are yet to be announced, so you’d expect those would be a priority before Carter-Vickers with [Odsonne Edouard and Ryan Christie](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/ryan-christie-celtic-bournemouth-transfer-24872300) heavily linked with exits.

If they are finalised, McKay could then put all his efforts into signing Carter-Vickers, but it looks like it could go down to the wire given all the business left to sort out in Glasgow.
