The USA International suffered an Achilles injury in the closing stages of the win over Strum Graz, which proved to be Brendan Rodgers\u2019 last at Celtic Park. <\/p>\n<p>The injury is set to sideline CCV until at least April after he was forced to go under the knife in early November. Hopes of making Maurico Pochettino\u2019s World Cup squad will be slim for the central defender but he will be hoping to get himself back before the end of the season in order to force his way into contention. <\/p>\n<p>US journalist Larry Henry Jnr has provided a positive update on the player\u2019s condition, revealing that his recovery is going well. <\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Cameron Carter-Vickers\u2019 injury rehabilitation is going well, sources say. <\/p>\n<p>Mainly upper body strength and leg work but no ball training just yet. <\/p>\n<p>A positive to hear. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/USMNT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">#USMNT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Larry Henry Jr (@lhenry019) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lhenry019\/status\/2015124824704651732?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">January 24, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since signing from Spurs in 2021, initially on a loan deal, CCV has been a vital part of Celtic\u2019s success under Ange Postecoglou and Brendan Rodgers. He will be preparing for life under a new manager after missing the disastrous reign of Wilfried Nancy; however, he was pitch side for some of Nancy\u2019s most brutal results. <\/p>\n<p>CCV has been spotted at games still wearing a protective boot as he recovers from his injury. It may be that he is ramping up his recovery, which could result in him being back in action during the title run in but it remains to be seen. <\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Celtic have been dealt a positive update regarding star defender Cameron Carter-Vickers.
