Leigh Griffiths (born 20 August 1990) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a striker. He is currently a free agent after being released by Scottish Premiership club Celtic .

Griffiths started his career at Livingston where he made his debut as a sixteen-year-old. He then moved to Dundee in 2009 for £125,000. During his five years in the Scottish First Division he earned six young player of the month awards. With Dundee in financial trouble, Griffiths moved to Wolves for around £150,000 in January 2011.

Having not been a Wolves first team regular, he spent the 2011–12 season on loan to Scottish Premier League club Hibernian. This loan was renewed for the following season, during which he won the SFWA Footballer of the Year award and made his debut appearance for Scotland. After it appeared Griffiths had become part of Wolves' plans during the 2013–14 season he moved mid-season to join Celtic. After failing to impress in later years, Griffiths spent the first half of the 2021-22 season on loan with Dundee, but was recalled by Celtic and subsequently released at the end of the January 2022 transfer window.
