Adam Idah, born on 11 February 2001, is a forward who primarily plays as a striker for Celtic. Born in the Republic of Ireland, the 24-year-old stands at 6 feet 2 inches (1.9 metres) tall and weighs in at 13 stone (83 kilograms). The no. 9 jersey has been a familiar sight on his back throughout his career. Idah has also represented the Republic of Ireland on the international stage.

According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is approximately £4.5 million. His contract with Celtic, with a remaining duration of 4 years and 4 months, is due to expire on 30 June 2029.

Idah commenced his football career as a trainee at Norwich City in the English Championship in July 2017. He made his debut during the 2019-2020 season and scored his first goals for Norwich City in the 2020-2021 season. He ultimately made 90 first team appearances and scored 12 goals in league matches for Norwich City before transferring to Celtic.

He was loaned out from Norwich City to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership in February 2024 where he made an impressive impact. In the 2023-2024 season, he made 15 first team appearances and scored 8 goals in league matches. He then returned to Norwich City at the end of his loan, before making a permanent move to Celtic in August 2024 for a fee of roughly £8.5 million.

Since his permanent move to Celtic, Idah has continued his goal-scoring exploits. In the current 2024-2025 season, he has netted 8 goals in 27 league matches. He can also boast of contributing goals in the League Cup, Scottish Cup, Euro Qualifiers, Nations League, and the Champions League representing Celtic and the Republic of Ireland.
