Leigh Griffiths - extends at Celtc for 1 year 01/07/2021

If celtic don't extend his deal by end of play tomorrow, he's allowed to start talking to clubs.

Might be an interesting few months
Thought he still had a year on his contract 👀
 
There’s a year option at the same terms.
My guess is the Smellies won’t exercise the option, but will see how much Hibs offer him, then offer him a new two year deal for a few grand a week more than us.
Everyone’s a winner.

Except Hibs.

No, Celtc have a year's option which they may or may not take up. They have until COP tomorrow

Think the smelly hoardes will be demanding bigger and better after this season , i'd be surprised if they were to take up the option

I don't think Griffiths has any future at Celtic.
Their new manager will want his own players in and will be given a huge budget which to use. They absolutely must get the the league title back from the huns next season. I just don't think a 31 year old Leigh Griffiths with all his problems will be part of the new managers plans. I would be amazed if he is offered a deal.
If he becomes available, and our wage offer is acceptable to him, and Ross wants him, I reckon he will be Hibs bound.
 
I would be amazed if LG ends up anywhere but Hibs.. only if his thoughts are fir staying in Scotland that is

Likewise, I think he could do a job in England but don't think anyone would take a chance.
Not sure a European adventure would suit him.

America if he had an offer, but I dunno that would come about either.

Hibs it is 🤞
 
Edward will be away, klimala has gone and ajeti is shit - I'd be amazed if Griffiths doesn't stay with them
 
If you're a club the size of Celtic you'd surely be looking to offload Griffiths and get someone younger in on a 4/5 year deal with potential to sell. Would be surprised if Griffiths got an extension to be honest.
 
I think he will swap places with either Porto or Nisbet. Maybe even Boyle.

I dont think any of them will be good enough for what Celtic have to pull out this season. Their fan expectation will be through the roof.

Porto possibly because he's not liked at all by Hunco, but he's got some good offers in England to look at. Could easily be more offers depending on how the end of this season goes.

Celtic will have to pay up, properly pay up to get near any of them.

That's a fair point. Doesn't leave them with much firepower.

They will spend big though.
Their current strikers have failed them this season. They won't be allowed another chance.

Aye I get that but if you've got the option to keep the best Scottish striker as back up and spend big on starters some might be alright with that.

Two again 40 mins in for Jason C tonight !!

Agreed. Celtic and their biscuit tin mentality often has some truth to it but after this season, their fan base will be expecting a huge summer from them. Money will be spent this close season by them and I can’t see them offering Griffiths a new contract.
 
Knowing celtic they'll probably trigger the extension, decide they don't want him and sell him for a million quid. Dicks

to who though ??
 
I'm sure at least half a dozen English championship teams would take him if not any lower Premier league teams? Chunk change to them

I don’t think any English team will pay money on a 30 year old Scottish striker who’s had a pretty poor last 18 months on the pitch (in terms of appearances and goals). There’s just too many other options out there, ones who have actually scored in the English Premier League / Championship.
 
After today, let’s just get him in 😳

I’d rather spend the money on pay offs.

Sorry to disappoint the Newell lovers but he’s no safe either. Relocation package for Irvine to help him on his way to his new employer in cloud cuckoo land that he’s been holding out for a year for 😆

I never switched on again today so I’m basing this on about 10-12 matches I was able to watch this season.

Fucking shite.
 
Certainly worth a gamble. If it’s between him or Wright starting in a situation like today then I know who I would rather have

Looks like Newell and Jackson didnae turn up either. Not good enough.

Yes! He get's Hibs which is hugely important for us and him, especially now given his age and where he is in his career! He must be set up financially and still have a point to prove to his doubters?

Ah yes the guy we couldn't afford who'd be away down south . I'll give him a fuckin lift if he needs one

Watch his hair doesn't get in your eyes.
Or vice versa.....
 
looks like the smellies are toying with giving him the chance to prove himself to the new manager

He may refuse their offer possibly if Hibs showed genuine interest.

Kennedy said decision expected within the next 2 weeks.

Depends how happy he is to sit on the bench again.
My understanding is that the extension has expired, so they have to offer him a new contract now.

He'll obviously make more money there though.

Money aside which, unless he's into yachts and fast cars he probably has enough.
 
Looks like Griffiths will be free from his contract.

Yup just get the feeling that a new manager at Celtc will make a lot of changes and can’t see Griffiths being part of the plans
 
Not sounding very good at the moment. Positive talks between Griffiths and the new manager over the phone. To meet to discuss his future when he comes out of quarantine.
