Report: Celtic keen on Wolverhampton Wanderers striker

Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Leigh Griffiths has reportedly captured the attention of Celtic manager Neil Lennon.

The Scottish champions have been in the market for a new centre-forward ever since Gary Hooper departed for Norwich City during the summer.

Having identified a handful of targets, Lennon has now settled upon Griffiths, who has had previous spells in Scotland with Livingston, Dundee and Hibernian, according to The Mirror.

Recent reports have suggested that Wolves are keen to sign Nahki Wells from Bradford City, which Lennon is thought to believe will give him a greater chance of securing Griffiths's services.

The 23-year-old has scored 13 goals in all competitions this season.
