Kevin Nisbet to Celtic and Leigh Griffiths to Hibs? 'Nonsense' - Jack Ross pours cold water on speculation
Reports emerged in the past 48 hours that Celtic were lining up a bid for Nisbet, with Leigh Griffiths moving in the opposite direction as part of the deal.

“I was surprised when I saw the story,” said Ross. “Unless people at the club aren’t telling me things, which I don’t imagine to be the case, then it’s nonsense really.
"It just shows something can be created and people run with it. There’s absolutely no truth in that whatsoever.”
