That’s now sorted’: Celtic get the green light to go and sign striker who impressed Gary Neville
With the updates coming in thick and fast over the last twelve hours, it appears that Celtic’s transfer activity has picked
up a notch.
Fabrizio Romano’s overnight update has put an end to the Sydney van Hooijdonk rumors, and Celtic are now focusing
on Adam Idah, a 22-year-old striker for Norwich.
Ironically, though, Norwich City needed to get a striker in the door after the Championship team closed a deal on van
Hooijdonk before Celtic could pursue the Republic of Ireland international.
Journalist Mark Hendry claims that as the agreement appears to be finalized, Celtic may now move forward with
pursuing Idah.
Hendry addressed X and said, “Norwich and Sydney van Hooijdonk have reached an agreement. Canaries refused to
approve Adam Idah’s Celtic loan until they had a suitable alternative in place.
“That’s resolved now, so there are no more obstacles.
Yes, as I mentioned earlier, I also find this transaction to be ironic. It shouldn’t be too hard to close this deal because
Idah is supposedly eager to join Celtic.
Neville was quite satisfied with Idah’s performance during Norwich’s 3-0 away victory over Watford in January 2022.
Neville told the Irish Independent, “I wouldn’t be comfortable as a defender if I was up against Teemu Pukki and Adam
Idah,” following his creation of an assist in the victory.
Striker Adam Idah of Celtics?
Idah’s goal scoring record this season isn’t the best, as TBR Celtic already stated, but how do his lifetime goals compare?
After rising through the Norwich youth systems, the 22-year-old was highly regarded. In 2018, he made 15 appearances
and scored nine goals in his Premier League U18 debut.
After receiving a promotion, he played six games for the Norwich reserve team in Premier League 2 (formerly called the
Professional Development League), however he was unable to score.
The following season, Idah improved on that performance with 12 goals in 19 games, which saw him swiftly advance to
the Norwich first team.
Nevertheless, Idah has only managed to score once in 29 games, and the 22-year-old has only scored 11 goals in 70
Championship appearances.
Idah certainly seem like another project signing with 41 goals in 168 games, but if he signs with Celtic, I suppose the
supporters will just need to watch what he can do if and when he can displace Kyogo
