Leigh Griffiths has committed his long-term future to Celtic, signing a new five-year contract.

The striker's current deal was not due to expire until until 2017 but Celtic have now secured their first-choice striker until 2021.

Griffiths joined in 2014 from Wolves and has scored 46 goals for Celtic. The 25-year-old has found the net 19 times so far this season.

Griffiths told Celtic's official website: "I love putting the Celtic top on every time and feeling that expectation to win every week.

"I'm looking forward to the next five years in the Hoops as we look to add to the trophies already won."
