Adam Idah, born on 11 February 2001 and currently aged 25, hails from Republic of Ireland and plays his football as a forward for Swansea City. Standing at 6ft 2in (1.9m) and weighing in at 13st (83kg), he holds the number 33 jersey for his club. In addition to his club duties, Idah has also honourably represented the Republic of Ireland at the national level.
As of the latest estimation, his worth in the market is approximately £5.5m, as reported by Transfermarkt.
In 2017, while in his teens, Idah joined the ranks of Norwich City in the Championship as a trainee. His debut season, 2019-2020, saw him making 12 first team appearances. His involvement with the first team gradually increased over the seasons, allowing him to tally up three goals in 17 appearances in the 2020-2021 season, a single goal in as many appearances the following season, and two goals across 25 matches in the 2022-2023 season. The 2023-2024 season saw his biggest haul yet, with six goals from 28 games, and the start of the 2024-2025 season saw him make a singular appearance.
A shift in scenery came about in February 2024 when Idah was loaned to Celtic, playing in the Scottish Premiership. His stint north of the border was a successful one. He quickly found his footing, scoring an impressive eight goals in 15 appearances in the remainder of the 2023-2024 season. Displaying a knack for goal scoring, Idah’s time on the field increased even more in the 2024-2025 season, where he netted 13 times in 35 appearances. The current season, 2025-2026, has seen him make a brace of appearances for the Hoops.
In July 2024, his loan spell at Celtic ended, and he returned to Norwich City. His stint back in England was short-lived, and by August of the same year, he was back at Celtic, this time on a permanent transfer for a deal in the region of £8.5m. His second spell at Celtic echoed his first, as he continued to make regular appearances and find the back of the net.
However, September 2025 saw another change of venue, with Idah transferring to Swansea City in the Championship for an undisclosed fee. So far in the current season, he's made 23 first team appearances, scoring on four occasions. He also played for Swansea City in the League Cup, starting twice, and took the field six times for Republic of Ireland in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe, bagging a single goal.
Through the many twists and turns of his career, Adam Idah's tenacity and knack for finding the net have proved him a valuable asset to his teams. From his early days in Norwich to his successful stints at Celtic and Swansea City, he has continually proven that he is capable of rising to whatever challenge is set before him. As we look forward to watching his career unfold, we believe the best is yet to come from this striker.
