Has Celtic man just dropped biggest hint yet he’ll leave Parkhead?

Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham’s future remains up in the air.

The Frenchman is apparently a transfer target for Marseille and Porto this summer.

The Hoops recently named their price for the former Manchester City man, and reportedly want between €15-17 million (£13-15 million) to sanction his exit.

Ntcham, who joined the club for £4 million in 2017 (Football Scotland) made 37 appearances in total for the club last term, but struggled in parts with injury.

With so many midfield options at Celtic, speculation has been rife about the 23-year-old’s future.

And it would appear that Ntcham has dropped his biggest hint yet that he will leave this summer, after reportedly unfollowing all of his teammates barring Youssouf Mulumbu and Cristian Gamboa on social networking site Instagram (via The Daily Record).

TBR’s view

The saga has definitely taken a strange turn.

For Ntcham to seemingly try and disassociate in this way would suggest that he is ready to leave the club this summer.

Perhaps something has gone on behind the scenes and this is the player’s way of communicating what he wants to happen. Maybe Celtic are making a fight of him attempting to leave.

Whatever the reason for the unfollow spree, it’s not something that’s likely to go down well with the fans, certainly amid speculation of a move away from the club.
