Adam Idah, a Republic of Ireland international, has entered the building; nonetheless, it isn’t ideal that his agreement doesn’t have a buy option.
However, rumours circulating in Ireland indicate that the Bhoys could be able to pay more than £3 million to sign the 22-year-old when his Glasgow loan agreement expires.
Idah made his debut last Saturday against Aberdeen. Coming off the bench, he helped Nicolas Kuhn secure a point at Pittodrie by putting a clever assist through a deflection.
In his pregame news conference prior to the Hoops’ trip to Hibernian, Rodgers expressed his admiration for the Cork-born striker without holding back, saying, “The ability he has is incredible, really; he has every tool that you want to play at the highest level.”
The Irishman may get the chance to make an early impression at Easter Road later tonight, which might help to supply someone other than Kyogo Furuhashi to score goals.
Robert Earnshaw, a former Wales international, has experience leading the line having played for illustrious teams like Nottingham Forest and West Bromwich Albion.
Speaking with Livescore, as reported by The Daily Record, the 42-year-old hinted that after completing his move on deadline day, Idah will have a chance to demonstrate his “true good qualities” at Parkhead.
Earnshaw said, “I like Adam Idah. I think he’s a good player. He seems decent to me. He exhibits several really admirable traits.
Going to Celtic, in my opinion, can occasionally just open you up and make you realize that this is a fantastic platform. Your confidence will then soar. Perhaps he is in need of something similar. It seems like a rather bold move to me.
Adam Idah merits the chance to have an influence at Celtic
Idah deserves regular minutes if his debut is any indication, as he has already shown that he can provide Celtic with something entirely new in the midfield.
The 22-year-old, who played three crucial passes and won all of his aerial duels during his brief stint against Aberdeen, received a 7.2/10 match rating from Sofascore.
Although Hyeongyu Oh has not yet returned, Idah is eager to compete with his striking teammates for first-team opportunity.
