Bad News for Adam Idah
Celtic forward Adam Idah has withdrawn from international duty with Ireland after sustaining a facial injury in Sunday’s match against Kilmarnock. The 22-year-old was initially set to join up with the Republic of Ireland squad on Monday but informed the FAI that he would not be available due to the injury.
The incident occurred during Celtic’s 2-0 win at Rugby Park, where Idah took a heavy elbow to the face, resulting in a nosebleed and requiring significant treatment on the pitch. Though Idah managed to finish out the Game until being subbed for Kyogo Furuhashi, the knock appeared severe enough for him to reconsider playing through the pain for Ireland’s upcoming fixtures.
Celtic’s Hectic Fixture List
With Celtic’s fixture list packed following this final international break of the year, it seems likely that the striker is prioritising his club duties. The injury, if limited to his face, could see Idah return to the lineup in time for Celtic’s clash against Hearts on 23rd November.
The Hoops went on to secure a comfortable 2-0 victory over Kilmarnock, courtesy of goals from captain Callum McGregor and Nicolas Kuhn. Brendan Rodgers will be hoping to have Idah fit and ready to go for the busy weeks ahead, as Celtic look to maintain momentum across domestic and European fronts — not to mention a Glasgow Derby Cup final.
