Adam Idah 40k a week.

According to Alan Nixon

Adam Idah's weekly Swansea City wage has been revealed - it is absolutely eye-watering

Swansea City signed Adam Idah from Celtic this summer

That's a hefty wage for us. Can't be true, shirley?

 

[Captain_Sham]

6.5 million quid and £2m a year in wages. Crikey. A lot of money for a target man. I hope he is just getting up to speed because hes been anonymous so far.

I hope to god that this is not true!
I don't think anyone is foolish enough to think he isn't on a decent wage but if it's close to 40k then serious questions need to be asked.

 

[Swansea93]

Not believing that one bit

 

[J_B]

I'm struggling to believe that the owners are that stupid.
Then again it's their money so they can do what they like with it.

 

[Dr. Winston]

Probably no more true than the idea that we paid £6m for him.

 

[Malaga]

The brum comms yesterday said it was 7m, at least they managed to pronounce Vipotnic unlike the Hull pundits who called him Vip Tonic all game

I'm glad it's not my money.

 

[Ringwood]

We couldn't buy LoB because his wage demands were around that.

Rumoured to be more to story than just wages. His wife was reported not that keen and they would be far from family as she was expecting at the time.

 

[Manselton Jack]

I'd be shocked if that was true

 

[FearOfAJackPlanet]

Seems highly unlikely to me, but if true

*baseless theory incoming*

I wonder if this pursuit of Idah and the financial resources allegedly thrown at it was part of the reason for the break with Montague? (Pursuing a different direction in recruitment etc.)

I’d say unlikely considering Montague’s vision was buying low and selling for higher profit, this deal is complete opposite to what he seemed passionate about imo.

At first it seemed like a made up wage. But when you think about it, he had signed for Celtic last year from a top Championship side and he had a five year deal with Norwich. So Celtic would have had to offer him a good deal to get him in the first place. Then we would have had to have raised that again. So it is probably a huge amount for us. With the fee involved, it is a big outlay. One that may hold us back in the future if it does not go right. At least he should score goals if we create for him.
