It makes sense that Adam’s toys are on the floor if Norwich is behaving badly based on Idah’s £11 million assessment.
After going home to retrieve his phone, which he somehow forgot, Adam Idah missed a flight to a preseason game. It looks like he’s thrown his toys out the pram as the Carrow Road club responded with disciplinary action against the Celtic transfer target.
For the second week in a row, Norwich supporters are not thrilled with the Irishman. Idah was regarded by the Norwich supporters as their whipping boy until he moved on loan to Celtic to train under coach Brendan Rodgers, who was able to bring out the best in the Ireland striker.
At that time, it was being discussed that he would be available for about £3 million, and most people would have said good-bye to the Championship team. According to a blogger with long-term access to Celtic chairman Peter Lawwell, Celtic has offered Adam Idah as much as £4.5 million. However, the £6 million valuation that most observers thought would finalize the sale has suddenly nearly TRIPLED.
Idah’s toys being on the floor makes sense. No club would ever come close to that valuation, so good luck to them if they can. In contrast, Celtic might pay about £6 million to recruit Aberdeen’s maybe superior goal scorer. Alternatively, you might go to Hearts and spend the amount of money Idah had in February.
Given Celtic’s enthusiasm, Norwich’s desire for a premium makes sense. From their perspective, the appearance of Italian “bidders” is just as convenient as a player’s agent possibly causing some trouble across the fence.
