Jamie Vardy Commits to Leicester City with a New One-Year Deal.
Vardy Extends His Tenure Amidst Club’s Premier League Return
In a move that confirms his continued influence on the pitch, Jamie Vardy has renewed his contract with Leicester City for another year. This decision comes on the heels of Leicester’s promotion back to the Premier League, marking a crucial moment for both the player and the club.
Leicester’s Promotion Triumph and Contract Complexities
Earlier in the year, reports surfaced about potential negotiations between Vardy and the club following Leicester’s anticipated promotion. Despite the complications arising from a registration embargo imposed by the EFL, Leicester’s confirmation as a Premier League club during the league’s annual general meeting solidified the path forward for Vardy’s new contract.
“To get the numbers that I did (last season), I’m delighted with it, but there’s still more to come,” Vardy said. “I look after myself. I’ve always said that age is just a number. My legs feel fine so that’s why I carry on until my legs say ‘that’s it, game over’. There will be a day when that comes, but that’s not right now.
