Adam Idah, born in Cork on 11 February 2001 (age 25), is an imposing 6ft 3in (1.90m) Republic of Ireland striker with Swansea City, where he wears the number 9 shirt. His current market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Norwich City supplied the bulk of his senior career. Across six seasons there he made 100 league appearances and scored 12 league goals, giving him the grounding and first proper stretch of senior football that shaped the player Celtic later brought to Glasgow.
Celtic signed him from Norwich in February 2024. His best league return came in 2024-25 at Celtic, when he scored 13 goals in 35 appearances. That made his time in Glasgow more than a passing detail, even if Norwich remains the club most associated with his development and volume of football.
Idah left Celtic for Swansea City in September 2025. In 2026-27, he has scored in his one Championship appearance and has also played once in the League Cup, giving him two Swansea appearances and one goal across all competitions that season.
He has also remained involved with the Republic of Ireland, making six European World Cup qualifying appearances and scoring once this season. His career has been built mainly at Norwich, sharpened at Celtic, and is now continuing at Swansea.
