Celtic are planning to offer Olivier Ntcham a new contract, but FC Porto remain in the hunt for the former Manchester City midfielder, according to A Bola.

Goal.com France reported earlier this month that Celtic have turned down an offer of €15 million (£13.52m) from Porto for Ntcham (click here to read more).

A Bola has also claimed of the Portuguese giants’ interest in the 22-year-old midfielder.

The Portuguese publication has reported that Celtic are planning to hand the youngster a new and improved contract, but Porto are claimed to retain their interest in the Frenchman.

New contract makes sense?

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 £4.5m.

The Frenchman has established himself as an important player for the Hoops, who will be wise to hand the 22-year-old a new deal and retain his services for the 2018-19 campaign.
