Speaking to GiveMeSport, journalist and transfer 'insider' Dean Jones has shared some significant exit news out of Tottenham Hotspur.

The Lowdown: Spurs rebuild underway?

Spurs manager Antonio Conte again hinted to the media that he could quit the club if chairman Daniel Levy and transfer chief Fabio Paratici cannot match his ambition in north London.

Much has been made of who could come through the door this summer as the Lilywhites reportedly plan to back the 52-year-old with new signings, but amid the club's precarious financial situation, it is simply imperative that some players also make way.

One of those - defender Cameron Carter-Vickers - has been excellng on loan north of the border at Celtic as the Glasgow giants remain firmly locked in a Premiership title race with arch-rivals Rangers.

The Hoops possess a purchase option in the deal, rumoured to be a minimum of £6m, not including add-ons which will increase the overall cost significantly (Daily Record).

Reports of talks emerged near the end of last year but there hasn't been much in the way of movement since then.

The Latest: Jones shares big update...

Speaking to GiveMeSport, insider Jones has revealed Carter-Vickers' personal stance, claiming that the 24-year-old  is 'very keen' to join Celtic permanently from Spurs and going on to say that the American's exit from N17 is 'realistic'.

The journalist explained: “I think that Carter-Vickers is very keen, because he feels like he can become part of the project there long-term, and I think it’s one that is realistic to be honest.”

The Verdict: Get it done...

Depending on the potential fee agreed, offloading the USA international could be a financial boost for Spurs ahead of the summer, so it seems like a no-brainer to negotiate with Celtic.

Hailed as 'outstanding' for his form at Parkhead this year by Hoops team-mate Greg Taylor, Carter-Vickers has only played five senior games in total for Tottenham since first making his debut in 2016/17.

It seems clear that he may not have a future at the north London club, so cashing in on him is certainly the best option.
