Tottenham Hotspur defender Cameron Carter-Vickers has made quite a name for himself 34 miles from North London over the past seven months.

The 22-year-old has come through the ranks at Tottenham but to date has only made four senior appearances for Spurs since his 2016 debut (Transfermarkt).

Carter-Vickers was on loan at Stoke City earlier in the season, making 15 appearances in all competitions for the Potters, including 12 in the Championship.

However, his last Stoke appearance was in the loss to Blackburn at the end of November and, with little prospect of game time in the second half of the season, was recalled by Spurs.

Carter-Vickers then joined Luton Town on loan and has done superbly, making 16 Championship appearances, including the full 90 minutes in their last 14 matches of the season.

His performances have not only helped shore up a previously rickety Hatters defence but have also proven crucial in the club pulling off a great escape and surviving in the Championship.

Luton were 10 points from safety in February but managed to see off Blackburn 3-2 on the final day to finish three points clear of the drop zone, with CCV once again impressing.

Carter-Vickers may not have had a fruitful time at Spurs so far but a combination of Jose Mourinho needing to bolster his ranks and the player’s heroics at Kenilworth Road could well see him given a chance next season.

And if not, then at least the United States international is bound to have at least one suitor, judging by the Luton fans’ love for him:
