Andy Griffin joined Stoke from Derby County in January
|
Stoke City defender Andy Griffin has said he will relish the challenge of being the Potters' new captain.
After skippering his side to victory against Cardiff on Saturday, he said: "It's a proud moment in my career so I'm obviously delighted."
Griffin took over the role following former captain John Eustace's departure to Watford on deadline day.
But he will now miss Saturday's trip to Molineux against Wolves after being booked in the 2-1 win against Cardiff.
"We've still got good players in the squad who can come in and do a job," he told BBC Radio Stoke. "I've got every confidence that the team can go to Molineux and get a result."
Griffin, who started his career with Stoke, returned for a third spell with the Potters during the January transfer window.
