Leeds United and Stoke City have been linked with Tottenham Hotspur central defender Cameron Carter-Vickers.

According to BBC Sport (Transfer Live blog, 12:15, Thursday, August 8, 2019), Cameron Carter-Vickers is heading to Stoke City for £6 million, meaning that Leeds United are set to miss out on the Tottenham Hotspur central defender.

TEAMtalk recently reported of interest in Leeds from Tottenham youngster Carter-Vickers.

It was reported that Spurs were willing to send the USA international central defender out on loan again this summer.

However, according to BBC Sport (Transfer Live blog, 12:15, Thursday, August 8, 2019), the 21-year-old is joining Leeds’s Championship rivals Stoke City for a transfer fee of £6 million.

Missing out

Carter-Vickers is a very good and promising young central defender who has good experience at the Championship level with Sheffield United, Ipswich Town and Swansea City.

The USA international will be a good signing for Stoke, and Leeds are missing out on a player who would have made Marcelo Bielsa’s side better and stronger at the back.
