Leigh Griffiths insists he’s discovered the eye of the tiger as he bids to get his career back on track. A summer of gym sessions have taken the 31-year-old back to the fighting weight which saw him rattle in 40 goals for the Hoops back in their 2015-16 season.
Griffiths spent the end of the last campaign at Falkirk after ending an eight year spell at Parkhead back in February but he insists a strict six days a week boxing regime has him feeling fight ready. He said: “It’s a difficult time just now as I see clubs going back for pre-season and wonder when is it going to be my turn?
“I’m not going to lie, it gets lonely. It knocks my confidence not having my future sorted but people such as Martin Clifford at the boxing gym have been brilliant at keeping my head above water. Six days a week I’m in training and all of this work will come to the fore when I get back onto the pitch. “
