# Celtic: Joe Hart played a role in Cameron Carter-Vickers’ move

**Cameron Carter-Vickers spoke with Joe Hart over a move from Tottenham to Celtic and could have joined Torino, according to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-celtic-new-boy-carter-vickers-rejected-deadline-day-move-from-tottenham-to-serie-a-club-after-levy-accepted-offer/).**

### The Lowdown: One of three in

The Hoops were extremely busy in the final hours of the transfer window, with three players in and three out at Parkhead on deadline day.

Carter-Vickers was the final deal of the day and Celtic’s [12th signing](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/celtic-glasgow/transfers/verein/371) of the window. He penned a [season-long loan](https://www.celticfc.com/news/2021/august/Celtic-sign-Cameron-Carter-Vickers-from-Spurs/) move to Parkhead, with the Hoops having the [option](https://www.celticfc.com/news/2021/august/Celtic-sign-Cameron-Carter-Vickers-from-Spurs/) to make it permanent next summer. However, it could have been a different story for the [USA international](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/cameron-carter-vickers/profil/spieler/341049).

### The Latest: Torino snub, Hart conversation

According to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-celtic-new-boy-carter-vickers-rejected-deadline-day-move-from-tottenham-to-serie-a-club-after-levy-accepted-offer/), who were informed by a Spurs source, Tottenham actually accepted a loan offer from Torino for Carter-Vickers. However, the 23-year-old turned down a move to Italy as he wanted to stay in the UK.

He revealed to [Celtic TV](https://twitter.com/CelticFC/status/1433686201249107969) that a conversation with Joe Hart, who is on [£15,000 per week](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/joe-hart-agrees-celtic-transfer-24674591) at Celtic Park and previously played for the Serie A side, helped to convince him to move to Scotland.

### The Verdict: A shrewd move?

It appears as if Carter-Vickers may well have ended up elsewhere if it wasn’t for Hart, and only time will tell if bringing the American to Glasgow will be a good call.

The good thing is that the Hoops now hold the cards when it comes to the defender. Should he impress, Celtic can exercise a clause to make the move permanent. If he struggles, the Hoops can always send him back to London at the end of the campaign without making a major financial commitment.
