Wrexham fans have plenty to say about Jamie Vardy amid links to Leicester City star
Wrexham may have an interest in Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, who’s enjoyed a prolific season in the Championship.
Vardy, now age 37, has just fired Leicester City to the Championship title after scoring 18 goals in the league this season.
The former England forward sees his contract expire in the summer, though there’s numerous reports that he’s set to sign a one-year extension at the King Power.
Despite that, Wrexham chief Humphrey Ker recently revealed that Vardy would be someone he’d take a punt on.
He said:
“There’s nothing to say that Jamie Vardy wouldn’t be a great Wrexham player.
“It’s not a name I’ve had mentioned inside the building before but, you know, age and profile wouldn’t put us off.”
Wrexham fans react to Jamie Vardy links
Vardy is a tried and tested striker.
He’s won the Premier League with Leicester, with whom he’s now scored 190 goals in 464 total appearances.
And this season he’s shown no signs of slowing down.
If anything, Vardy’s 2023/24 season was much-improved on his 2022/23 campaign in which he netted just three goals in the Premier League.
Next season may tell us a lot about where he’s at right now.
And it could be that Vardy and Leicester City part ways at the end of next season, if he only signs a one-year extension this summer.
Wrexham may well be bringing Vardy in at one point in the future, and fans have had plenty to say about the possibility, with supporters mixed over a possible deal for the Leicester man.
Here’s what some of them had to say on social media…
@pauly3113: Wrexham need to stay well clear of vardy if the rumours are true no way he would sign for us on around 10,000 a week, say he signs for 20,000 a week… that’s when issues start with other players.
@MartinKTBFFH: Said this 2 weeks ago. Got laughed at. Now it’s news. Vardy at Wrexham would be CLASS.
@JVAD25: PLEASE sign Jamie Vardy, thank you! If this happens I will fly out to his unveiling!
@J0rdanBurke: That’s really exciting news! Having someone like Jamie Vardy potentially joining Wrexham would be phenomenal. He brings so much experience and skill to the table. Looking forward to seeing how this develops!
