Celtic in pole position to sign fantastic EFL man as he prepares for medical

Celtic are on the ‘verge’ of signing Norwich City striker Adam Idah on a permanent basis, according to a report by the Daily Record.

Norwich City are poised to cut ties with the attacker full-time this summer as he edges towards a switch to Celtic. He spent the second-half of last season on loan with the Scottish Premiership giants and scored nine goals in 19 games in all competitions to help them win the title and the Scottish Cup.

Idah, 23, has since returned to Carrow Road but his future has been up in the air over recent times. He is under contract with the Championship side until June 2028.

However, in this latest update regarding his situation in East Anglia, the Daily Record report he has been given permission to head up to Glasgow now to put pen-to-paper on a deal with the Hoops and undergo a medical. He has apparently made it clear recently that he wants to link back up with Brendan Rodgers’ side and has now been granted his wish.

Norwich City striker close to Celtic move

Norwich City signed Idah back in 2017 from College Corinthians.

The Republic of Ireland international, who has 26 caps under his belt so far in his career, broke into their first-team two years later.

He has since played 115 games for the Canaries in all competitions and has scored 17 goals, seven of which came in the last campaign.
