LIVINGSTON striker Leigh Griffiths was today flying home from holiday to complete a £125,000 switch to Dundee.

The Scotland B internationalist has agreed terms with the Dens Park club and Livingston chairman Angelo Massone has also agreed a sell-on clause to complete the deal.

Dundee director Calum Melville said: "I have come to an agreement with Livingston chairman Angelo Massone over the fee.

"We have agreed personal terms with Leigh Griffiths, who is flying home from holiday to sign."

It is understood Griffiths will undergo a medical at Dens Park tomorrow.

The 18-year-old was voted PFA First Division Player of the Year last season after scoring 20 league goals, despite being injured for a third of the campaign.

Livingston also announced today the club's shirt sponsor, RDF Consulting, will not be taking up an option on a second year to back the club.

RDF director Keith Macdonald said: "As a community-based company, we are hopeful that we can still show support to the community football club whenever possible in the future."
