Don Goodman has criticized Adam Idah for his response to Norwich City’s decision to reject Celtic’s £4 million offer for the forward. Idah, who spent the second half of last season at Parkhead and quickly became a fan favorite, has found himself in a tangled web of uncertainty regarding his future.
The situation took a turn earlier this month when Idah arrived late for a pre-season flight to Austria, leading to disciplinary action from Norwich City. Despite Celtic’s continued interest and reported intention to submit a new bid before the transfer deadline, the uncertainty surrounding Idah’s future persists.
Goodman is of the opinion that Idah should focus on his performance on the pitch rather than engaging in off-field disruptions. He believes that by showcasing his abilities and proving his worth through his game, Idah could attract the attention of potential suitors and secure a move to a club where he can continue to develop.
While Idah has been with Norwich since 2017 and has shown glimpses of his potential in both the Premier League and the Championship, he has struggled for consistent game time. The possibility of a move to Celtic permanently, where he scored eight goals in 15 league appearances last season, could be beneficial for his career progression.
Despite his importance to Norwich, there is a growing sentiment that a sale might be the best solution for all parties involved. While Norwich should not be held hostage to a sale, it may be in Idah’s best interest to seek a fresh start elsewhere to further his career and reach new heights. By focusing on his performance and maintaining consistency on the pitch, he could secure a move to a club where he can thrive and continue his development as a player.
