OFFICIAL: Celtic complete €7m striker transfer
Celtic have officially finalised the sale of Adam Idah to Swansea City for a reported transfer fee of €7 million.
The Republic of Ireland international spent just one full season at Celtic Park, following his permanent arrival from Norwich City in 2024 after a fruitful loan spell, but he has now departed the club to join Championship outfit Swansea.
Idah, 24, scored 29 goals in 76 appearances for Celtic and he has become the 11th player to leave the Scottish giants this summer.
Adam Idah joins Swansea
Upon confirmation of his move to Swansea, Idah told the club’s official website: “I want the responsibility, and it is one of the main reasons I have come here. I want to have the chance to be the main man, to lead the line and score as many goals as I can.
“Every striker wants that job, and to come here and try push for promotion; if you can be the main man in that then it is an amazing feeling.
Thank you and good luck to Adam Idah, who has joined Swansea City on a permanent transfer.#CelticFC🍀 https://t.co/8znD8WYSld pic.twitter.com/Rj2UY7q8dP

“I am really looking forward to trying to do just that and score goals.”
He added: “I feel I am a good all-rounder and I can bring a bit of everything. I have the physique, I have pace, I can dribble with the ball or hold it up to bring others into play.
“Overall, I think my game is not just about any one thing, I believe I am good at all the different parts of the game so I hope I can bring that while looking to learn and still add more things moving forward.
“I am really excited, it is a fresh start for me, it’s a fresh start for my family, and I want to get going and get some goals.”
