Norwich City Sporting Director Ben Knapper has said that the Championship side are keen to retain Adam Idah. Celtic have launched a £6m bid for the Irishman as they look to bring him back to the club after a successful loan in the second half of last year.
At a meeting with fans, Knapper admitted that he is keen that Norwich retain the striker despite the heavy links to Celtic.
“He’s a fantastic player, and in winter he had one of the best goals per minute ratios in Europe. He’s a proven goalscorer at Championship level and did very well at Celtic.
“He’s a full international who’s home grown and has come through the system. He’s exactly the type of player who excites me.”
Celtic have reportedly bid £6m plus add-ons for the player with Idah keen to make the return. The comments from Norwich’s Sporting Director could be a process of hardball from the EFL side as they try and drive a hard bargain.
The 23-year-old scored 9 goals and assisted once in 19 appearances and most of these came from the bench. The striker scored some big goals as Celtic won a League & Cup Double and the manager made it clear that he was a priority this summer. If the player’s social media is anything to go by, he is also keen on a deal being done.
