Leigh Griffiths scoops monthly award

Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has been named the Scottish Premiership Player of the Month for August.

The accolade is a reward for the 25-year-old's performances during his six outings, which yielded a return of five goals.

The frontman, who joined the Scottish champions from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2013, has found the net on 36 occasions from his 67 appearances in Celtic colours.

Meanwhile, Rangers boss Mark Warburton claimed the Scottish Championship Manager of the Month award.
