CAMERON CARTER-VICKERS faces a race against time to be fit for Celtic’s Champions League tie against RB Leipzig on Wednesday night, with Ange Postecoglou assessing his star defender on a day-to-day basis.
The American missed Celtic’s defeat to St Mirren before the international break and subsequently withdrew from the USA squad for their World Cup warm-up matches against Japan and Saudi Arabia after ‘pulling up a bit sore’ in training, according to Postecoglou.
Carter-Vickers and his central defensive partner Carl Starfelt will definitely be absent for Celtic’s home match against Motherwell this afternoon, and the Swede has no chance of making the trip to Germany. The Celtic manager is hoping though that Carter-Vickers will be fit for the game in Leipzig.
