Rodgers says Ntcham is a ‘top young player’ who has ‘improved a lot’ at Celtic

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers was full of praise for Olivier Ntcham, saying the Hoops midfielder is a “top young player” who has “improved a lot” since joining the club.

Ntcham joined Celtic from Manchester City in July 2017 and has gone on to make 70 appearances in all competitions under Brendan Rodgers, scoring and creating 21 goals.

The French u21 international, who has also played for Genoa, has been a regular at Parkhead this season, racking up 22 appearances across the board and Rodgers believes he’s come on leaps and bounds in the last year.
