French midfielder Oliver Ntcham moved to Glasgow this summer from Manchester City.
When the Champions League returns to Glasgow on Tuesday night, Celtic will be up against the odds facing the most expensive front-line in football history.
Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain added to existing riches over the summer with the two most expensive transfers of all time, in the form of attackers Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
However, Frenchman Olivier Ntcham insists that money will play no part when the match kicks off at Celtic Park.
“On the pitch we’re all the same,” insists Ntcham, recently signed from Manchester City for £4.5m.
“It doesn’t matter how much money you cost because on the pitch, everybody has two feet and you play.”
Tuesday’s clash will be the midfielder’s European debut, and it takes on added significance due to the nature of the opponent too.
“I’m very excited to play against PSG because before I was a supporter of Paris, and to play against them is close to a dream for me.
“For [friends and family], it is like a dream because before everyone watched them on the television, now we play against them.”
Ntcham nevertheless believes that Celtic should approach the match with confidence, as they look to capitalise on home advantage.
“I know the atmosphere is going to be unbelievable,” said Ntcham.
“We have to play our game and even if, tomorrow, we lose or win we still have games to play against big teams so it’s always good to play against big teams.
“Being more aggressive is more important and play our own game is the key.”
