Celtic chief Brendan Rodgers Considers that the hoops must sign another central advantage to challenge Adam Idah for a place in the departure alignment before the end of the summer transfer window.
The manager recently said: “He was at his best here when it was difficult for the position with Kyogo Furuhashi. He really needs this real competition next to him – I think that is what you draw the best of him.
Idah started the first two games of Scottish Première Season against St Mirren and Aberdeen, but failed to provide a goal or help for the team.
Why Celtic needs a new striker
The hoops must find a new striker because international Ireland has not proven that it has the quality of being the main number nine of the League club, as evidenced by its difficulties at the start of the current campaign.
During the 2024/25 season, the former Norwich elite shooter was much more effective to get out of the bench to have an impact as a substitute for Celtic.

As you can see in the table above, the Idah has known much more success by leaving the bench for the Scottish giants since its return to a permanent agreement, which suggests that the hoops need an attacker to allow him to be an impact substitute.
It was reported last month that Celtic is Interested in signing The CFR CFR striker Louisanu, the would have been estimated at 7 million pounds sterlingAnd it could be a big upgrade on the Irishman.
Why Celtic should sign Louis Munteanu
The international form of Romania for CFR Cluj during the 2024/25 campaign suggests that it has the potential to come and offer more than Idah as the main number new for Rodgers this season.
The scout of Jacek Kulig football talents described the attacker Exit like “Magnificent” And it is difficult to challenge this evaluation, because it has scored 25 goals in all competitions for the Romanian part, by transfer.
MUNTEANU, who played for the U19 team from Fiorentina at the level of young people, proved that he could regularly find the bottom of the net as a clinical finish in Romania, but it should be remembered that he is not proven in the first and there is no guarantee that his form is reflected.

That being said, you can see in the table above, the classified star of 7 million pounds sterling has the potential to be a big upgrade on the Idah for Celtic if they can make it shoot on his best in Glasgow, on the basis of their respective performances in the last quarter.
These statistics suggest that Munteanu could offer much more quality as a scorer for hoops, because he has scored ten more goals while missing less “large chances” in the same number of appearances at the League level.
This means that the Romanian striker is more clinical than the Idah with the chances that come to his own, which will be music to the ears of the supporters after the three big chances of the Irishman are missed against St Mirren on the day of opening.
MUNTEANU has also created a “great chance” more for its teammates in these games and could offer a similar level of creativity compared to the Irish 6 feet.
Overall, however, the Cluj Centr-Forward seems to have the qualities to come as a big upgrade on the Idah if he can adapt to Scottish football, because he could be the prolific number they are looking for to allow ex-Canadie to play their role on the bench.
