Could Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths return to Hibernian?
Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has proved himself at the club, but he is struggling for playing time at the moment. Injuries have played their role, but the biggest factor has been the form of Moussa Dembele.
The 20-year-old France Under-21 international has been scoring goals for fun for Celtic this season. There is a very good chance that the youngster will end up with over 40 goals in all competitions this campaign.
Griffiths is a very good striker, but could his struggles to get playing time at Celtic at the moment see him leave for Hibernian on an emergency loan deal?
Hibs are playing in the Scottish Championship at the moment and are aiming to win automatic promotion to the Scottish Premiership at the end of the season.
The 26-year-old former Wolverhampton Wanderers striker has suggested on Twitter that he could move to Hibernian on an emergency loan deal. The Scotland international was on loan at Hibs from 2011 until 2013.
However, it does look like Griffiths’s comments were tongue-in-cheek, especially as the tweet sent to him mocked him.
