Idah Celtic permanent transfer weighed up as Norwich consider Sydney van decision

Celtic will have to wait until the end of the season to discover Norwich City’s stance on striker Adam Idah.

The Hoops took the Irishman on loan from the Canaries in January and the hitman has settled well in Glasgow with five goals in all competitions from 10 appearances. Fans of the club were hesitant about the signing but have taken to the 23-year-old with some big strikes already and that has led to calls to sign the player on a permanent deal.

Football Scotland revealed back in the winter window, however, that no future fee had been agreed between the two clubs and now we can confirm that Norwich are waiting to see how their own loan swoop fares between now and the summer.

Sydney van Hooijdonk was brought to Carrow Road from Bologna on loan and Football Scotland can reveal that the Championship side are not yet willing to commit on selling Idah until the Dutchman proves his worth.

Van Hooijdonk is yet to hit the net for his club since arriving on loan and he’s only provided one assist in his 11 outings.

Football Scotland also understands Norwich are waiting to see where they’ll be playing their football next season as they remain in the hunt for playoff promotion to the Premier League while sitting sixth in the second tier with eight fixtures to go.

There could be a number of moving parts between now and the summer window and that leaves Celts playing a waiting game should Brendan Rodgers look to make the move full-time.
