U.S. prospect Carter-Vickers eyes next step at Tottenham

The 19-year-old U.S. youth international finds himself on the cusp of an increased role for the Premier League contenders

HARRISON, N.J. — Cameron Carter-Vickers spent the 2016-17 Premier League campaign in something of a no man's land.

A prized prospect at Tottenham, the U.S. youth international regularly cracked the game-day squad for Spurs. But opportunities to see the field were few and far between, to the tune of just four first-team appearances — two apiece in the FA Cup and League Cup. So Carter-Vickers found himself on the cusp of Premier League playing time, yet too advanced to earn minutes in Tottenham's youth setup.
