Norwich City have announced that Adam Idah will return to Carrow Road after an impressive loan period with Celtic, during which he played a key role in securing their third consecutive Scottish Premiership title.
Before his return, Idah will have one final appearance for Celtic in the upcoming Scottish Cup Final next Saturday.
Celtic are set to take on Rangers to defend the cup.

During his time at Celtic Park, the striker made a significant impact by scoring eight goals in 15 Scottish Premiership matches, which included crucial late winners against Motherwell and Hibs in the latter part of the season. Looking back, his goals won Celtic the title.
Despite his successful stint and valuable contributions under Brendan Rodgers, there has been no clear decision on converting Idah’s loan into a permanent move this summer.
There is no option to buy included in the loan, and it’s thought that a fee of over £6 million will be needed to secure him permanently.
Additionally, Norwich confirmed that Sydney van Hooijdonk, son of former Celtic legend Pierre van Hooijdonk, has concluded his loan spell from Bologna. The 24-year-old Dutch striker was previously linked with a move to Celtic in January, following his own loan term’s end.
