Hibs favourite Leigh Griffiths 'could be available on free transfer' from Celtic this summer


According to the Scottish Sun, Celtic hold an option to retain the 30-year-old for another year with the deadline for the decision coming at the end of this month.
The striker has played 27 times this campaign though mostly as a substitute. He drew the ire of former boss Neil Lennon last summer after turning up for pre-season training following the first lockdown out of shape. With a large clear-out expected at Celtic Park this summer the Glasgow club could look to move on from their controversial hitman.

Griffiths was a huge success in his first spell with his boyhood favourites, netting 39 goals in 78 appearances and helping the club reach two Scottish Cup finals.
