Cameron Carter-Vickers had Premier League options but his only interest was Celtic and the Champions League.
The Hoops have made a major statement by turning loans of Jota and the American international into permanent transfers. Wolves, Leicester and former club Bournemouth were linked but Carter-Vickers was adamant his only focus was leaving Tottenham and extending his stay in Glasgow. The 24-year-old is now looking to build on last season’s double and helping Celtic make their mark in the group stage of the Champions League.
Carter-Vickers said: “I was linked with a few Premier League clubs but it was never anything concrete because I was always set from the end of last season that I wanted to sign for Celtic. That’s what I wanted to do. It didn’t happen immediately but it was still done quite quickly and I was delighted. It was important for me to finally get away from Tottenham.
