Scott Brown has already made 17 appearances for Celtic so far this season.
Leigh Griffiths has told the Glasgow Evening Times that he is delighted that Scott Brown is a Celtic player.
Going into the new campaign, there were some doubts over how often Brown would feature under Brendan Rodgers’ guidance.
However, the central midfielder has quickly proven his worth to the Bhoys – by putting in a series of excellent displays.
Brown scored the winning goal for Celtic in their most recent match against Dundee, to ensure that they continued their impressive start in the Scottish Premiership.
And Griffiths said: “Scott is a Duracell bunny. He just never runs out of energy. He has it in abundance. He was dead on his feet against Manchester City last week, but he never gives up, never gives an inch. I am delighted to be on the same team as him. He brings so much to us.
“He has that grit and determination, he never wants to lose and that even includes the likes of training games. I just think he is a joy to have around the place because he inspires players to give every last drop of sweat for the club.”
Brown has already made 17 appearances for Celtic in all competitions this term, and he continues to wear the armband for Rodgers’ side.
The 31-year-old’s combative streak has been important to Celtic, as they have made a fast start to the new campaign.
The Bhoys are already four points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership standings, and they have managed to pick up a draw against Manchester City in Europe.
Celtic are next in action after the international break, when they take on Motherwell.
