He’s been training with Livingston since he returned from Australia and is still without a club. Just as he was looking to get his career back on track, he was arrested but released without charge in connection to gambling patterns while he was at Dundee.

Waterford is eyeing up promotion after last season’s relegation and has identified the former Celtic man as a top target to help them get back into the top flight. However, his goal tally is questionable, and he is struggling to hit the back of the net for Dundee and Falkirk, who are in League 1.

The Irish side is looking to sign the striker before the league campaign starts in February.

To think twelve months ago, Leigh Griffiths was still on Celtic’s books is quite astonishing. He returned from the COVID break overweight and it all went wrong from there, unable to find the form he had in the early months of 2020 when he and Edouard had a great partnership up top.
