Following Jamie Vardy’s sighting at an Italian club, Claudio Ranieri has discussed the star of Leicester City’s future.
When the Foxes defeated Preston North End 3-0 last month to win the Championship, Vardy was a major contributor to the victory.
Following the announcement of Leicester’s return to the Premier League, Vardy has been connected to a move out of the King Power Stadium.
The 37-year-old’s current contract is scheduled to expire in the summer, and there has been no word from Leicester as of yet regarding an offer to extend it.
The Englishman was observed over the weekend at Como, a Serie B team that recently earned promotion to the Italian football league.
Following Cagliari’s 5-1 loss to AC Milan at San Siro, questions regarding Vardy’s future were posed to manager Ranieri, who had previously worked with the Englishman at Leicester.
He stated, according to TV Dello Sport: “I’m not aware of that. No, I wasn’t called by him. He might not even have my Italian number on file. I’m not sure if Fabregas is considering him. However, I’m happy to note that every one of my players that competed for the championship has
Vardy was asked if he was considering putting up his boots after an incredible career in English football following the game against Preston.
“Listen, I’m not ready to hang the boots up just yet,” he remarked. We’ll see what transpires. My legs feel good and I’m as fit as I’ve ever been.
Vardy remarked, “The season has gone quickly but it’s a graft!” in reference to the season as a whole. Not many days off—I won’t tell you that to waste your time! The boys have put everything into it. It’s similar to how we play while we’re in training. Full speed ahead.
“I’m happy that 5,000 people came to celebrate with us tonight; it’s well deserved.” There are a ton of fans. It’s not as though it’s 20 minutes away. Since it’s a night game, it’s amazing that so many people are still present and eager to celebrate.
