Yesterday it was revealed that English Premier League side Newcastle United were interested in taking midfielder Oliver Ntcham to the club.
Now there looks to be even more interest in the Frenchman ahead of tomorrow’s deadline day. As reported by Sky Sports journalist, Anthony Joseph, there is also interest from clubs in France with teams like Marseille and Lyon looking at a move for the Celtic number 21.
Marseille are the latest club interested in Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham.

Newcastle have made a loan enquiry and Lyon have a long-standing interest.
We understand his preference would be a move to France.

This season, Ntcham has been missing for a large majority of Celtic squads, especially in the last few months which has led to speculation about his future.
He is a figure who has frustrated a lot of the Celtic support. In the past, he has shown his quality and can be a real top midfielder on his day.
However, many would argue that this doesn’t come enough of the time and would expect a player like Ntcham to become a more regular and consistent performer.
It doesn’t come as a surprise that the former French under 21 internationalist is one of the players who looks to be moving on this month after recent speculation around his future.
