And Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says that the club will support Griffiths as he deals with his off-field isssues and said that players and fans can support him to "give him time and become better."

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard also offered a message of support to the Scotland international, saying that: "We wish Leigh well and hope to see him back on a football pitch pretty soon."

Gerrard also hit back at Gordon Strachan after the former Scotland boss said that Rangers are 'too big a club' for some of his players. Gerrard said: "If I had an opinion on Celtic when Gordon Strachan was the manager I don't think Gordon would have taken much notice of it. So I don't think I'm going to take too much notice of what an ex-Celtic manager says about my team."
