Scout report

Squad depthGoal-getting Centre-forward

A. Idah is a 25-year-old centre-forward at Swansea, rated 62.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 162nd of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.85 goal contributions per 90 (0.64 goals, 0.21 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Idah.

Judged on this season alone, Idah graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 66 of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship, on 6 goals and 2 assists in 25 appearances (0.848 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 35 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 63, top 34% of the 66 centre-forwards in the Championship. At 25 Idah is in his prime years, and a market index of 28.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Idah missed 15 games through injury (groin, inactive) out of roughly 46 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

6 goals in 25 appearances (0.24 per game) for a mid-table side. Add 2 assists for 8 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.85 goal contributions per 90 (0.64 goals, 0.21 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 62.8, Idah carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Championship of 66 — though on just 25 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.85 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
