Celtic sign Ntcham from Man City

Celtic have signed Olivier Ntcham from Manchester City on a four-year deal.

The 21-year-old, capped by France at every level from Under-16 to Under-21, had joined City s academy from Le Havre in 2012.

The midfielder has spent the last two seasons on loan at Genoa, scoring three goals in 37 Serie A appearances.

Ntcham did not manage a senior appearance for City and will now seek to help Celtic retain the Scottish Premiership title. 

The wait is finally over! Olivier Ntcham joins on a four-year deal. Welcome, Olivier!

It s a nice feeling to be here at Celtic and I want to win everything at Celtic as I have never won a trophy before, he said in a statement. 

I m most looking forward to the derby and playing in the Champions League. I remember them beating Barcelona five years ago in the group stages. Not every club gets to play in this competition so I m happy to have the chance to play there with Celtic.

Celtic is a fresh challenge for me. While Genoa are a good team, I knew they wouldn t win Serie A as they were not a top team like Juventus, but I know Celtic are a big team in Scotland.
