Celtic boss Lennon dismisses link with Wolves striker Griffiths

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has played down suggestions that he is after Wolves striker Leigh Griffiths.

The 23-year old, who enjoyed two successful seasons on loan with Hibernian, is being linked with a potential January move to Celtic Park but Lennon has dismissed that notion.

"That's just speculation," said Lennon. "I'm not going to name names.

"I'll have names thrown at me all month now. It's a long month, this is only the first day of it and I'm answering questions about this already.

"I'll probably be doing it for the next 31 days. But I am determined to bring players in to make the squad better for the latter half of the season and to give some of the players a hand and to make us better."
