Olivier Ntcham joined Celtic in the summer of 2017.
Didier Agathe has told The Scottish Sun that Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham has a big future.
Ntcham has been on the books of Celtic since the summer of 2017 when he joined from Manchester City for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £4.5 million.
Former Celtic star Agathe has spoken highly of the 22-year-old French midfielder, as well as of his teammates and strikers Moussa Dembele and Odsonne Edouard.
Agathe told The Scottish Sun: “Moussa Dembele and Odsonne Edouard are very talented. I know all about them.
“Olivier Ntcham is another player who is progressing well at Celtic, and has a big future in the game. These players can grow in the Europa League. I believe it will make them better.”
Linked away
Ntcham has been linked with a move away from the Hoops in the summer transfer window, with FC Porto interested in the midfielder, according to Goal.com France.
It has been reported that the Portuguese giants’ initial offer of €15 million (£13.44m) from for the Frenchman has been turned down.
While that is quite a lot of money for a 22-year-old playing in the Scottish Premiership, losing the Frenchman at this stage of the summer transfer window would be a blow for Celtic, especially as Brendan Rodgers’s side have failed to progress to the group stage of the Champions League.
