Republic of Ireland forward Adam Idah has joined Celtic on loan from Norwich City for the rest of the season.

The 22-year-old, who has 22 caps, has made 34 appearances for the Championship club this season, scoring seven goals.

But only 14 of those have been starts for David Wagner's side.

"It's such a huge club with such a big history behind it and I can't even put into words what it's like to be at Celtic," said Idah.

Talking to the club website, he added: "My family and my friends are all delighted that I'm here and I just can't wait to get started."

Born in Cork, Idah joined Norwich from schoolboy football in his homeland in 2017. He has 20 career goals in 137 games, including three for his country.

Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic have already signed German winger Nicolas Kuhn from Rapid Vienna for an undisclosed fee in the winter transfer window and visit Aberdeen on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Celtic's Republic of Ireland winger Mikey Johnston has joined West Bromwich Albion on loan.

Johnston, 24, made nine appearances in the Premiership this season, scoring twice.

Scotland midfielder David Turnbull was sold to Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee as he entered the final months of his contract.
