75% of Fans Polled Deliver Emphatic Leigh Griffiths Verdict

It was a big topic of conversation after Leigh Griffiths made a media appearance yesterday where he insisted Ange Postecoglou is keen on retaining the Celtic striker’s services.

Leigh’s contract situation is well documented – he’s out of contract at the end of July and right now, he’s free to sign for any club who wants him.

The Hoops had a four-year deal in place with Griffiths but as we’ve learned, the final year was optional and the club have not exercised the clause in his contract to keep him on automatically.

There are likely two reasons for this; they didn’t want to sign Leigh up while no manager was in place to have their say and the club wanted to reduce the terms of the contract offered to the player three years ago.

The forward’s role at the club has severely diminished in those three years and Celtic will likely want a deal in place that rewards game time more than anything else.

The fans have been split on this issue for some time, so we decided to put it out to our Instagram followers.

It wasn’t split at all there, with well over 3000 votes cast, fans voted in favour of Leigh staying on at the club.

There’s no doubt Griff is a great finisher but does he still have chops to play at this level. Celtic need everyone firing, can he make a difference?
