Image for Neil Lennon gives update on Leigh Griffiths investigation

Neil Lennon has confirmed that Celtic are continuing to investigate an issue of social distancing involving Leigh Griffiths.

Late on Thursday his partner Kaitlyn Melville shared images on Instagram of a surprise birthday party thrown at the home she shares with the Celtic striker.

It seemed that a number of people were pictured indoors with Griffiths included in some of the images.

Eight Aberdeen players have landed their club in bother with the First Minister very angry at the way the Dons players acted after Scottish football was given the go ahead to resume with special restrictions imposed.

Covering the incident at Griffiths’ home The Sun reports Lennon saying:

The club are doing an ongoing investigation. I’m not convinced it’s a big issue. Hopefully it’ll be resolved in the next couple of days. He has a calf strain so he would’ve missed the game anyway.

After a brief period when testing was reduced to once a week it has been upped to twice a week which has doubled the costs to clubs.

Aberdeen’s match at St Johnstone yesterday was postponed but with eight players unavailable the scheduled matches against Hamilton and Celtic are scheduled to go ahead.
