West Ham United are reportedly interested in the Celtic star.
West Ham United are reportedly interested in signing Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham.
According to L’Equipe, West Ham have approached the Scottish Premiership side about the former Manchester City starlet.
Ntcham joined Celtic for £4.5 million last summer and has since proven himself a wonderful addition to Brendan Rodgers’s side – and a firm fan favourite with the Hoops supporters.
West Ham have already added Jack Wilshere to their ranks this summer but, with Pedro Obiang linked with a move away, there may be room for another combative midfielder in Manuel Pellegrini’s side.
And here is how some fans of the East London club reacted to the possibility of Ntcham coming in:
Ntcham really is a super talent and enhanced his reputation with a brilliant performance – and a brilliant goal – in Celtic’s 3-1 win over Rosenborg in Champions League qualification recently.
However, the 21-year-old is signed up to the Hoops for the long term and therefore West Ham can expect to pay through the nose if they want him at the London Stadium.
Parkhead fans would hate to lose him only a year after signing him, but a substantial eight-figure transfer fee might soften the blow.
