Adam Idah opens up about his challenging times at Celtic and his unexpected move to Swansea City! The 24-year-old Republic of Ireland forward recently made headlines with his dramatic last-minute transfer from Celtic to the Championship side Swansea City, concluding an 18-month stint in Glasgow.
Despite securing two league titles and a Scottish FA Cup with Celtic, Idah faced plenty of criticism. He admits it was tough, stating, “You get a lot of hate…it’s torture…but when you’re doing well, nothing beats it.” Despite these ups and downs, Idah cherishes his time with the football giants, summing it up as an “amazing experience.”
Idah was set to play in the Old Firm clash when Swansea’s interest quickly developed. By deadline day, he was headed to Wales for a fresh start. “It was crazy,” Idah recalls, having learned about the move just a day before the big game. Yet, the prospect of joining Swansea was too enticing, with a new project and a team he feels he can really contribute to.
Idah isn’t just excited for change, he’s eager to prove himself and make his mark at Swansea. He’s one of 12 new faces this summer under Alan Sheehan’s management and could shine in his home debut against Hull City this weekend. The anticipation is real, and fans are keen to see how Idah will fit into the Swans’ squad.
