Seal Deal Norwich City Complete Deal For Formal Player Medical Now Set For Weekend
David Wagner was fired as manager of the Canaries after the team just missed out on promotion in the previous campaign.
He managed them to finish sixth in the standings, but they were condemned to spend a further season in the second level after losing to Leeds United in the play-off semi-final. In order to better mold the first team roster to his taste, Hoff Thorup will be looking to utilize the summer transfer window.
The window is open until August 30th, so there is plenty of time left to complete any outstanding deals.
Adam Idah, a striker, is expected to receive a higher offer from Celtic, according to Football Insider.
A price of about £6 million is thought to be sufficient to persuade the Norfolk company to take a profit on the Irishman. Idah, who had a great loan stint at Parkhead in the second half of the previous season, is reportedly eager to finalize the deal.
From 15 Premiership games, he scored eight goals and provided two assists; his goals were crucial in the team’s victory over the domestic double under Brendan Rodgers (all data courtesy of Fbref).
Idah failed to get into games under Wagner, but he may have a second chance at Carrow Road with the new manager.
