‘Incredible’… Brendan Rodgers blown away by 22-year-old Celtic player’s pace in training recently

Brendan Rodgers has been spending the last few days picking up his players after Saturday’s draw against Aberdeen and preparing them for tonight’s game against Hibs.

As the season draws to its conclusion, the games are coming thick and fast and the Celtic manager knows he can ill-afford to drop any more points.

It seems that the mood in the Celtic camp looks fairly positive despite the pressure at the top of the table and Rodgers has shared how he’s been excited about Adam Idah and the impress▨ion🌠 he has been making in training this week.

Rodgers said [], “Adam, I’m really excited about.  Like I said before, having seen him play and now seeing him for a few days working with him and speaking w🍃ith him, the ability that he has, it🙈’s incredible really.

“He has every tool that you want to💟 play at the very highest level. He’s obviously doing that internationally and it’s been a wee bit hit-and-miss for hi��m and at Norwich.

“But when I assess him a𝐆nd we see him in training, and we see the finish and we see the speed, we s🅠ee the touch, I’m excited about what he can bring us over these next remaining months.”

Idah was Celtic’s second signing of the January window and whilst the fanfare surrounding his arrival was fairly muted, the Republic of Ireland international did leave a good impression on his debut against Aberdeen at the weekend.

The 22-year-old certainly looks like he can offer Celtic a different option up front. Physical, powerful and if what R♉odgers says about his pace is true, then it seems that the H🥃oops fans may well have a player on their hands.

Celtic learned yesterday that it would take roughly £3m to get Idah on a permanent basis. The Irishman has 14 games 𓆉to show what he can do and if he doe🍷s well, he could be one of Rodgers’ first summer signings next season.
