Danny Mills, a former Norwich City defender, believes that allowing Adam Idah to join Celtic this summer would be beneficial for both the player and the clubs involved. Idah had an impressive spell at Parkhead last season, scoring nine goals in 19 appearances and helping Celtic secure the Scottish Premiership and Scottish Cup double.
While Brendan Rodgers is keen on keeping Idah at Celtic, negotiations with Norwich City regarding the transfer fee are yet to be finalized. Mills emphasizes the importance of lining up a suitable replacement for Idah if he does indeed make the move to Scotland.
Mills acknowledges that it can be challenging when a player wants to leave, but believes Norwich City must consider Idah’s desires and any potentially lucrative offers that come their way. With the new season fast approaching, a decision on Idah’s future needs to be made promptly to allow for a smooth transition.
New Norwich City manager, Johannes Hoff Thorup, has expressed his desire to include Idah in his pre-season plans, recognizing the player’s experience at Celtic could be valuable for the team’s promotion ambitions. However, Idah, a lifelong Celtic fan, is reportedly eager to return to Glasgow to pursue more silverware and the opportunity to play in the Champions League.
With the departure of Christos Tzolis to Fortuna Dusseldorf and a lack of signings in the forward position, Norwich City are currently short on attacking options. Mills stresses the importance of bringing in a suitable replacement if Idah does move on to ensure the team’s competitiveness in the upcoming season.
