There have been mixed reports on Olivier Ntcham as of late. Some sites [Football Insider] have claimed the midfielder has been released by Celtic but there has been no official word from the club and it wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense.
A reporter in Greece claims AEK Athens want to try and tempt the Frenchman to another move away from Celtic this summer after his failed loan to Marseille meant they didn’t take up their first option on the Hoops midfielder.
Rumor: AEK Athens are interested in Celtic 's Olivier Ntcham. Last season on loan at #OM #TeamOm#AEK #Celtic #CelticFC

Ntcham has had his moments in a Celtic jersey and on his day he can be unplayable.
However, the Frenchman has been so inconsistent and he’s been in and out of the team for the past two seasons before his loan move to France.
It’s expected the club and Oli will part ways this summer, but we just don’t know what that will look like at present. A free transfer seems off the charts stupid considering he still has some resale value.
