Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has stated on social networking site Twitter that he will be back in action very soon.

Griffiths have missed Celtic’s Champions League qualifiers so far due to a thigh problem, as reported by The Scottish Sun.

The Scotland international striker has told a Celtic fan on Twitter that he will back in action very good.

The 27-year-old – who earns £18,000 per week as salary, according to The Daily Star – has also suggested that he is looking forward to scoring two more goals to take his tally to 100 for Celtic.

Quality striker

Griffiths has been on the books of Celtic since January 2014 when he joined from Wolverhampton Wanderers for a transfer fee reported by The Daily Mail to be worth £1 million.

The 27-year-old has been a superb player for the Glasgow giants over the years and is a key figure in Brendan Rodgers’s team.

The return to action of the Scotsman will be hugely welcomed by Celtic.
