Jamie Vardy

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy is a potential option for Chelsea as a "last-minute backup", according to Give Me Sport's Dean Jones.

He may be on the wrong side of 30, but as a short-term option, the Leicester forward can add depth to our squad. But we still require a proven goalscorer to get over 20 goals in a campaign. The Blues are in need of a striker after letting go of Romelu Lukaku this summer.

The story of Jamie Vardy is a remarkable one as the striker has gone from non-league football to Premier League winner and legend.

Vardy’s story, however, isn’t finished as a big move could still be on the horizon as his time at Leicester could be coming to an end. This would be a sensational story should a move come to fruition as Vardy’s underdog tale could potentially have another chapter.

The 26-time former England international has scored 15 Premier League goals in each of his last two campaigns and has 133 top-flight goals since making his Premier League debut in 2014. Despite being in the twilight years of his career like Ronaldo, Vardy’s blistering pace hasn’t diminished nor has his ability to score goals – he also puts a shift in for the team and is often hassling and harrying the opposition centre-backs while in possession. While Ronaldo isn’t renowned for his pressing and running out of possession, the same cannot be said for Vardy.

Man Utd and Chelsea are reportedly among the clubs 'monitoring Jamie Vardy's situation' with his contract at Leicester City due to expire in 2023.

The report notes that talks over an extension are ‘yet to take place’. “But Jamie’s story, from playing FA Cup qualifiers to going on to win the FA Cup and win the Premier League, to playing in the Champions League, he really is a great of this football club but also the Premier League, you put him up there with the top strikers.” “I think his journey – coming into professional football at 25 and scoring his first Premier League goal at 27, to go on and score the goals he has and to have the impact he has had, he is such a unique player.

Chelsea and Manchester United are among a number of clubs reportedly monitoring Jamie Vardy's situation at Leicester City.

The relentless attacker retired from England duty shortly after the 2018 FIFA World Cup with a record of seven goals in 26 caps. Brendan Rodgers endured a disappointing campaign as they finished with far fewer points than the previous year. The veteran attacker has shown no signs of slowing down, despite being in his mid-30s.

The wait is over. Vardy sits 14th in the list of Premier League’s all-time top scorers. Despite being in the twilight of his career, Vardy offers something even Ronaldo does not. And they are not alone as Chelsea have also joined the race. United’s No 7 is still not fit enough to play a full game as he missed almost the entirety of pre-season due to family reasons. 90min have exclusively revealed that United are monitoring the situation.

Erik ten Hag's first transfer window at Manchester United has not gone as planned and the Dutchman will begin the 2022/23 season with an imbalanced squad.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer decided to sign Edinson Cavani two years ago after failing with a move for Erling Haaland six months earlier. It’s a move that doesn’t line up with Ten Hag’s vision. On top of that, Cristiano Ronaldo has already asked to leave the club and is in the middle of a seemingly public dispute with the manager.
