Anyone know anything about him? Josh Deaver@JoshDeaver Another #USMNT eligible talent at Tottenham. Def. Cameron Carter-Vickers has been called up for the U18 camp in CZE. pic.twitter.com/CmZGFCr1kX Reply Retweet Favorite Share More
Last season he was a centerback with Spurs. I've seen mentions of him in Spurs' U18 game reports from last year like this one... http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/reaction-to-u18s-win-over-arsenal-251113/ The lads looked strong all over the pitch on Saturday, but John picked out the centre-half pairing of Filip Lesniak and Cameron Carter-Vickers, among others, for praise afterwards. Lesniak was impressive having dropped into the centre of defence alongside Carter-Vickers, who got himself on the scoresheet with a close range effort to put us 3-1 up. “I was pleased with Filip Lesniak, who played as a centre-half on Saturday, and I thought Cameron Carter-Vickers was extremely dominant,” John added.
And this one............ http://windycoys.com/2014/02/150214-tottenham-hotspur-u18s-3-0-leicester-city-u18s-hotspur-way/ Cameron Carter-Vickers 8 – every time I watch this colossus of a player, I’m more and more excited. Not only does he swat strikers off the ball with ease, but he constantly pushes up into midfield to get involved. So impressive.
There's now a thread for him on the YA forum with folks posting their findings. Interesting stuff. This one is out of nowhere. If the collected big soccer prospect hounds haven't heard of a guy, then he's out of nowhere. Kudos to the USSF for this one. We'll have to find out what his connection to the US is................
This guy is definitely one to watch (and I don't say that very often). He has a December 31 birthday. That marks him as a special talent (and probably also an extremely early developer) in the youth ranks. Doesn't mean he'll be a star, but does mean that he has already overcome a significant handicap. He's 1 day too old for the US U-17 team. 1 day.
in England it isn't too bad. Their cutoff for domestic competition (or at least for U18s) is September 1
