Adam Idah, born on 11 February 2001, is an Irish striker currently playing for Swansea City. Standing at a towering 6ft 2in (1.9m) and weighing in at 13st (83kg), Idah dons the jersey number 33. He has also adorned his national colours, representing the Republic of Ireland on the international stage.
As per the valuation on Transfermarkt, Idah's current market value is estimated around £6m.
Idah arrived in England on a trainee contract with Norwich City in the Championship in July 2017. He gradually found his footing at the club, making his debut in the 2019 - 2020 season with 12 appearances. His performance improved every ensuing season, displaying his calibre with consistent appearances and eventually netting six goals in 28 appearances in the 2023 - 2024 season.
In February 2024, Idah sought new pastures, transferring to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership on loan. Over the course of his two seasons at Celtic, the striker made a substantial impact. In his initial season, he scored eight goals in 15 league matches, followed by 13 goals in 35 matches the next season.
With the completion of his loan in July 2024, Idah returned to Norwich City. However, his return was short-lived as he was permanently transferred to Celtic for a fee of around £8.5m in August 2024, where he continued his commendable performances.
But as the wheel turns, Idah once again relocated in September 2025, this time to Swansea City in the Championship, for an undisclosed fee. During the ongoing season, the Irishman has made 18 appearances and scored three goals.
Moreover, Idah has not restricted his talent to domestic leagues only. He has participated in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 for Swansea City, and did his duty in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024 - 2026 for Republic of Ireland, indeed finding the back of the net in his five substitute appearances.
Overall, Adam Idah has proved himself as a dedicated player who performs with diligence and commitment. While his journey has taken him from Irish soil to various clubs in England and Scotland, his endeavours have left an indelible mark in each team he has played for.
