Olivier Ntcham joined Celtic from Manchester City in the summer of 2017.
Ntcham moved to Scottish Premiership side Celtic from Premier League club City in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £4.5 million.
Brown has admitted that he did not initially know what kind of player the 22-year-old was, but the 32-year-old former Scotland international midfielder has been blow away by the ex-France Under-21 international.
“When Oli first came in, I didn’t know what kind of player he was,” Brown told The Scottish Sun.
“I thought he was maybe a box to box midfielder but his technical ability is second to none. I’m playing alongside him and he’s a top quality player.”
Important player
Ntcham is playing well for Celtic at the moment and could line up in the Old Firm derby against Rangers at Ibrox on Sunday afternoon.
According to Transfermarkt.com, the 22-year-old midfielder has scored five goals and provided one assist in 22 Scottish Premiership appearances for the Hoops so far this season.
Celtic will fancy their chances of winning against Rangers in the Scottish Premiership this weekend.
