Former Celtic B striker Adam Brooks has left Inverness Caledonian Thistle after the club entered administration this week. The financial crisis has already claimed manager Duncan Ferguson, who stepped down on Wednesday, leaving the Highland side in turmoil.

Now a free agent, 20-year-old Adam Brooks faces a pivotal moment in his career. With both youth and experience on his side, he’s likely to attract interest from clubs seeking to strengthen their attack. Brooks showed his potential during his time at Inverness, and his previous spell with Celtic B saw him net 14 goals—13 in the Lowland League and one in the UEFA Youth League—proving his ability to perform at a competitive level while still offering room for development.

For Adam Brooks, the immediate priority will be maintaining his fitness and staying match-ready as his representatives look for the right opportunity. This is a critical period for the young forward, as finding the right club could accelerate his development and provide a platform to showcase his talent on a larger stage. A move to a League 1 club, or a team at a similar level, seems likely, as his potential makes him an attractive option for many in Scotland’s lower leagues. With a few more years of development before hitting his peak, Brooks represents a worthwhile gamble for any side looking for a promising forward.
