The clip was recorded not long after Gers boss Steven Gerrard had expressed his concern for Griffiths, saying: “We wish Leigh well and hope to see him back on a football pitch pretty soon. This is sad news.”

Celtic boss Rodgers confirmed on Wednesday that the 28-year-old was taking a step back from football to deal with “ongoing issues”.

He continued: “WHe’s had issues for a number of months and he’s done amazing to get through and play to the level and score the goals that he has.

“He’s reached a point where it’s a struggle for him. We’re going to give him all the professional help he possibly needs to get himself into a good place again and come back doing what he does best.

“In order to do that, he needs to find a happiness. He’s a father of five children and he’s a great guy, but football and life is tough for him. We want to help him with that.”
