Griffiths not concerned about Roders’ China links

Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths does not appear to be phased by the rumours linking Brendan Rodgers with a move to China.

Rodgers himself confirmed he had a big-money offer put on the table to swap Celtic for the Chinese Super League recently.

The Celtic boss was believed to have been offered a contract worth a reported £44 million, quite the jump from his £2 million salary that he currently takes home with the Scottish champions.

However, Griffiths believes that the job Rodgers has on his hands at Celtic is too big for him to merely just walk away from for a big payday.

Speaking about his manager’s future, as reported by the Evening Times,

If you get an offer from China, I’m guessing it would be big bucks. But you know the gaffer’s love for the club, the way he wants to do things and the way he goes about his business.

There’s always going to be talk about him, but we have shown we are unified, we are together fighting for the same cause and we have got three trophies to defend this season. We want to go on and win them again.

The Hoops will be hoping to get their season back on track with a positive result against Aberdeen at the weekend.
